C+C Music Factory – Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) ft. Freedom Williams (1990)

This was a school disco classic. When I say school disco, I mean school disco! I was 12 when this was released.

A blend of hip hop, disco and Italian and euro house, this tune is the ultimate party starter and one you absolutely have to dance to right now. Who can resist that opening vocal and chores?

A hit in both Europe and the States, and a staple of many a film and cartoon, the track has moved from cool, to cheesy to damn right cool again.

Obviously, it touches on the running theme with “Gonna make you sweat”.
