Dance On Heavy Weather Lyrics


Take a chance - and dance
It's a chance - dance
All across the world there's people high on confrontation
And they try to solve their problems burning up the nation
Turn the whole world upside down and leave it in confusion
But still we get no answers using yesterday's solutions
We are the ones, keep sight of it
Don't have to make a fight of it
Dance on heavy weather
Learn to live with modern times
You can take the pressure
It's all a state of mind - so we can
Dance on heavy weather
Raise the heartbeat of the young
If we move together

Don't you know that we are the ones
Take a chance - and dance
It's a chance - dance
You can try to hide behind a mask of contemplation
Say you want to live your life in private isolation
From the east you can't ignore the storm of disillusion
And so it falls on all our shoulders to find a new solution
You've got to make a start of it
You've got to feel a part of it
Dance on heavy weather
Learn to live with modern times
You can take the pressure
It's all a state of mind - so we can
Dance on heavy weather
Raise the heartbeat of the young
If we move together
Let the soul - take control - we are the ones
Take a chance - and dance
It's a chance - dance
Hear the sound of the heartbeat of the young
Though the rhythm is so unfamiliar
Just be sure to be there now the time has come
Hear the music that brings us together
Dance on heavy weather
Hear the sound of the heartbeat of the young
We can take the pressure
We may have a solution, we are the ones
Dance on heavy weather
Hear the sound of the heartbeat of the young
If we move together
We may have a solution, we are the ones

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Internationally popular British funk-rock quartet fronted by Mark King and Mike Lindup, best known for their hits Lessons In Love, Something About You, The Sun Goes Down (Living It Up), Love Games and Hot Water. They were formed on the Isle of Wight.

Though their membership has fluctuated throughout the years, the original and perhaps best-known lineup consisted of Mark King aka "Thunderthumbs" (vocals & bass), Mike Lindup (vocals & keyboards) and brothers Boon Gould (guitar) and Phil Gould (drums). After the success of the Running in the Family album, the Gould brothers left the band, citing musical differences and nervous exhaustion. King and Lindup continued, picking up replacement artists in Gary Husband on drums and former Go West and Kate Bush guitarist Alan Murphy. Murphy sadly passed away after suffering from an AIDS related illness in October 1989. The band released their then swansong album, Forever Now, in 1994.

At the end of the 80s, Mark King was recognized as one of the best bass players in the world having pioneered the 'slap and pull' technique, treating the bass as a percussion instrument. His style and virtuosity still are hugely influential, considering he also sang while he played very difficult basslines.

Following the formal breakup of the band in the mid-90s King later performed with a new lineup under the Level 42 moniker, before he and Lindup reunited to record Retroglide in 2006.

As of 2012, King and Lindup are still touring with personnel of Pete Ray Biggin, Sean Freeman and Nathan King completing the current lineup.
