Comments
This song was ahead of its time.Just listen to that synth at the begining, its late 80S ACID HOUSE.A year or too later and this could have been a HIT!
This has a catchy riff that The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards would be envious to have invented. Great rock track. Fantastic song by a band that just never lets up & has existed for decades. I hate disco but this is a knowledgeable rock band that knows how to build an aggressive beat and get feet moving on the dancefloor with expertise.
Bob Haag plays Enodyne Guitars & synths to get the effects. David Kendrick provides massive drums. Leslie Bohem (bass guitar) & the Mael Brothers -- the redoubtable Ron and Russell -- provide everything else. 1986 -- what a cool sound these guys had & they still do it to this day.

Sparks always spoofed and bested the sound of each decade at the same time. Truly the sound of masters.
I love this tune, had the album in the 80s and took it to a club and asked the DJ to play this tune, He did but took it off when no one danced apart from me! It's a little choppy in parts so not surprised.
This song is pure insanity
my FAVE dance song.........EVER
My NUMBER ONE DANCE SONG...of ALL TIME!!! This is brilliant.
love this track
brilliant album often ignored
Is it just me, or is the lack of an obvious snare in this song a musical joke ("Every single beat where it ought to be"). Compare and contrast with most 80's dance songs of that era, which seem to be competing as to who can have the loudest snare. There are a few random snare hits around 3:30, conventional dance tracks would have had these all the way through. I'm sure this little touch was deliberate.
Probably the best fuck you in music history
Hi Nrg Sparks. ;-)
Just makes me think of the chick in the leopard leotard in RAD
Cru Jones approves this song.
We need more SPARKS.
Music that you can dance to
That and that alone is enough for me
Stark naked modern music
Hotter than your momma will ever be
Music that you can dance to
Cracks you like a whip, but it feels so right
Outside the world is colder
Every single night, it's another fight
So what's it gonna be? (gonna be, gonna be)
A symphony tonight? (tonight, tonight)
Perhaps a little jazz? (little jazz, little jazz)
All I wanna hear every day, every night is
Music that you can dance to
Every single beat where it ought to be
Lip smacking good, good, music
That and that alone is enough for me
So what's it gonna be? (gonna be, gonna be)
A symphony tonight? (tonight, tonight)
Perhaps a little jazz? (little jazz, little jazz)
I gotta, gotta move to the beat, to the beat tonight
(tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight,
tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight,
tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)
Get up, dear
Get up and try
Get up, dear
Get up and fly
Get up, hon
You're the one
Get up, hon
Son of a gun
Shake it, dear
Don't be shy
Shake it, dear
Right in my eye
Shut up, dear
Don't be weird
Get up, dear
The boys are here
Music that you can dance to
Get yourself in tune for the real McCoy
No heavy message, baby
Just the perfect blending of sex and noise
Get up, dear
Get up and try
Get up, dear
Get up and fly
Get up, hon
You're the one
Get up, hon
Son of a gun
Shake it, dear
Don't be shy
Shake it, dear
Right in my eye
Shut up, dear
Don't be weird
Get out of here
The police are here
Music that you can dance to
That and that alone is enough for me
Music that you can dance to
Hotter than your momma will ever be
Music that you can dance to
Music that you can dance to
Music that you can dance to
Music that you can dance to....
That and that alone is enough for me

I was never someone who liked to go to the disco and dance, and I certainly didn't want to. But this one makes my legs twitch after 5 seconds. Fabulous!
Uaoo what a song.... masterpiece...the futuristic brothers Mael did it again as thousand time before and after...
Watched a doc on them on Netflix last night. Totally brilliant. The never did what was the norm and rightly so.. I love these guys!!!!
I LOVE SPARKS!!!!!!!!!
Всегда актуальны... Долгих лет жизни...
Cmon how about a little space here. You out thank you Rod and Rex Reynolds
It's a 1986 single actually. 'Change' was released in 1985, a whole year before the album and next single came out; God knows why, label trouble I guess.
