Dance Little Lady Dance
Charles Tina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Someone taught me how to dance last night
What a mover he was!
And someone taught me how to do it right
What a groover he was!
He taught me all the steps to do the Rock'n'Roll
I found my sense of rhythm but I lost myself control
When he said:
Dance little lady
Dance
Dance little lady
Dance
You know you've only got one chance
Come on
Dance
Dance
Dance
Oh
Oh.

Someone taught me how to move last night
What a looker he was!
And someone taught me how to do it right
What a cooker he was!
Now we boogie and we bump until we're fit to drop
And when he gets me goin' I don't want to stop
When he says:




Dance little lady
Dance

Overall Meaning

"Dance little Lady" by Charles Tina is a song about learning how to dance and letting go of your inhibitions on the dance floor. The singer describes how someone showed them how to dance "right" and "do the Rock'n'Roll." They found their sense of rhythm, but lost control in the process. The chorus urges the listener to dance and seize the opportunity, with the repeated line "You know you've only got one chance, come on, dance."


The lyrics suggest that dancing can be both freeing and slightly dangerous. On one hand, the singer is thrilled to have learned some new moves and found their rhythm. On the other hand, they are experiencing a loss of control, which could be interpreted as a loss of self. The repeated refrain of "dance little lady, dance" can be seen as a command to let go and fully embrace the moment.


The music itself is upbeat and energetic, with a driving beat that encourages movement. The lyrics reinforce this feeling, with their references to boogieing and bumping until you drop. Overall, "Dance little Lady" celebrates the joys of dancing and encourages listeners to let loose on the dance floor. Whether you're a seasoned dancer or a novice, the song's message is clear: grab your partner and dance like there's no tomorrow.

Essa inglesinha linda saiu pelo mundo em 1976, divulgando seu álbum que continha todos os seus hits, se apresentando em canais de televisão, e na sua visita ao Brasil tivemos o privilégio de assistir pela extinta Rede Tupi de Televisão o seu especial.
Eram os primeiros passos da Disco, o último gênero musical do mundo.

Conheci essa obra prima no GTA Cidade de Deus do nosso bom e velho PS2, faço questão de sempre vir aqui escutar essa arte. Me faz lembrar dos velhos tempos em que eu estava a jogar videogame com os meus irmãos!

Tina Charles, a queridinha da Disco Music dos anos 70 que encantou o mundo com suas doces músicas dançantes. Ela e Donna Summer reinavam as pistas de dança daquela década. Eu ainda era criança quando esta fez sucesso, entre os anos de 1976 e 1977. Alto padrão de qualidade musical.

Que música, que voz, que cantora. Pode passar o tempo que for, mas essa música jamais sairá das mídias pelo sucesso que ela fez e ainda faz. Essa música, me lembra o meu irmão mais novo, hoje já falecido. É pra você Everton Felipe...
