Everybody Dance.

About Everybody Dance

"Everybody Dance" is a song by American band Chic. The disco song, which features Norma Jean Wright on lead vocals and Luther Vandross, Diva Gray, Robin Clark and David Lasley on background vocals, was released in April 1978 by Atlantic Records as the second single from the band's self-titled debut album, Chic (1977). According to guitarist Nile Rodgers, it was the first song specifically written for Chic, and, due to its historical status and popularity, is usually played as the opening song of the band's live set. In 1993, British group Evolution had a top-20 hit in Ireland and the UK with their cover version of "Everybody Dance". It was later heavily sampled by British group Steps on their song "Stomp" and echoed by the Manic Street Preachers on their single "(It's Not War) Just the End of Love".
