Dance Envy: Dancing By Myself By Billy Idol




Whenever a dance party is held, you will most likely find three kinds of people there: 1)Those who want to dance and have no trouble finding a partner; 2)Those who don't want to dance and head for cover when the music begins and 3)Those who want to dance but either doesn't have a partner or nobody wants to dance with them for some reason. You can probably count in in the second category cause so long as there's a watering hole, I'll seek shelter there. For those who fall in the third category, I feel sorry for them because they came there to dance with somebody but nobody's asking. It's big downer and what happens you feel like a kid whose excluded from all the play-time activities. When I hear the song "Dancing With Myself" by Billy Idol, I think about those guys and gals who want to dance with somebody but have a hard time doing so.

When, it comes to dancing, I turn into a ninja and disappear in background. Only if I am with someone who's company I enjoy, only then can will I be enticed to dance. There are those, however, are really searching for their soulmate on occasions like this and when they come up empty they just try to blend in with the rest of the dancers hoping to either cut in or find a partner. Some get lucky and some don't. Well, there's always the next party.

Still, there are those who keep on trying. Some may it's pathetic, but atleast they don't give up. If at first you don't succeed, try and try again. Eventually if you keep at it, you will succeed and dancing alone is nowadays acceptable. It's okay to dance by yourself so long as you don't "play" with yourself.
