The song "Get Down" by Avant Garde is an upbeat dance track that encourages listeners to get down and dance. The lyrics feature a call and response between the lead singer and the crowd, with the singer asking if they want to get down and the crowd responding with enthusiastic affirmations.
The lyrics also make reference to a DJ who is "really funky," suggesting that the music being played is of the highest quality and most danceable. The repetition of the phrase "put your feet back on the ground" further emphasizes the physicality of the song, as dancers are encouraged to move their bodies and get low to the ground.
Overall, the message of the song is one of pure joy and celebration, encouraging people to let loose and have a good time. The catchy chorus and infectious beat make it the perfect track for any dance party or night out on the town.

Thank you.
It feels like just experienced the best of the surreal, and a resurrection of the surreal, in a, for lack of a better word, cohesive contemporary fashion.
