dance song
Beat to move
A dance song is a piece of music designed primarily to make people move—characterized by strong, regular beats and rhythmic patterns that invite physical response.
The term spans genres from disco to EDM to pop: Every song on that album is a dance song.
Dance songs typically prioritize groove and energy over lyrical complexity.
