Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture joe Average	#1 by joe barker at Oct 10, 1973 at 10:02 PM EST
	Napoleon's been practicing some dance moves.

No Picture FiNgErBoY Professional Badass	#2 by FiNgErBoY at Apr 15, 1981 at 9:25 PM EST
	"I used to worry about the future But then I throw my caution to the wind..." After writing songs about war and greedy politicians and dying animals, ppl etc. there must have just come a point when it must have been getting jay down so much, and that nobody was paying much attention to his opinions, that he decided to just... dance.

No Picture Dylan Average	#3 by Dylan at Jan 26, 1983 at 5:54 AM EST
	the songs about dancing

No Picture Garth Badass	#4 by Garth "Fuckin" Rhodes at Aug 16, 1983 at 3:17 AM EST
	live this party live. don't let the bad days stop you from making the best of life overall. good "dance your cares away" song for real.

No Picture sebastian Professional	#5 by sebastian at Jan 27, 1985 at 8:03 PM EST
	This song makes me so happy. It is by far my favorite song. anytime I feel upset or whatever i just listen to the song, and it makes me dance which makes me feel better. Oh and Maleproz, canned heat is a fuel which is packaged into a can to heat food. I think he uses it as a metaphor to the "heat" from his feet from dancing so much. Anyway, this song is just pure amazingness. 1

No Picture Jared Wanna Be	#6 by Jared at Jun 11, 2000 at 5:14 AM EST
	This song has been played in a few of my favorite movies including center stage and recently napoleon dynamite (give me ur tots?)..but I'm not a Jamiroquai fan..I've listened to at the most probably 5 of his songs..so that makes me pathetic kinda since im taking the time to type all this out for no reason.

No Picture Tyrone Wanna Be	#7 by Tyrone Pinson at Oct 13, 2000 at 1:05 AM EST
	i love it when napolean dances to this!!! that man is so sexy ;)

No Picture Huuuu??? Yessss Wanna Be	#8 by Huuuu??? Yessssssss Its Meeeeeeee >jOrDaN< at Mar 4, 2003 at 11:34 AM EST
	This song is about a guy who is under a lot of stress, but he just decides, "Fuck it, I'm just gonna dance and have some fun."
