Dance Lyrics

Modern people tend to dance
With this music I'll put you in a trance
Now dance

The music of lights spreads within
And from the rhythm came the king
And from this new day dawns the light
And now the light shines bright, dance

Children grow, some women produce
Some men they work and some steal
Everybody's got to make a livin'
The time will come my friends
And we'll all be together 'till the end

Well, feel the connection of the base line
Movin' it flows and glides like light
It shines so very bright
And that way we'll move and be out of sight

Some people have tried and tried before
Well, with this rhythm I'll give you much more
Dance, I'll put you all in a trance

Children grow, women produce
Some men work and some may fool
But through these objections we find in our lives
A glare a day the darkest night

Oh, children grow, some women produce
Some men they work and some steal
Everybody's got to make a livin'
The time has come my friends
And we'll be together 'till the end

Well, feel the music move you and dance
I'll put you all in a trance

Feel the endless flow that hit [Incomprehensible] rhythms control
They're in a life, the soul, the fire enraged in you
And that way we'll come together and multiply
Well, now dance

Children grow, some women produce
Some men they work and some steal
Everybody's got to make a livin'
The time has come my friends
And now we're together 'till the end

Soul II Soul is a two-time Grammy winning act that emerged at the end of the 1980s from London. The group initially attracted attention as a sound system, playing records at house and street parties (where their clothing style - dubbed "Funki Dred" - quickly made a splash, inspiring them to start a line of clothing). Founded by Jazzie B and featuring a changing roster of other musicians - notably Nellee Hooper, Simon Law, Phillip 'Daddae' Harvey and Caron Wheeler - Soul II Soul's experiments in music-making of their own resulted in the dub plate "Fairplay," which secured them a deal with Virgin Records. They had huge hits in 1989 with the singles "Keep on Movin'" and "Back to Life (However Do You Want Me)," both from their debut album Club Classics Vol. I. These songs (both featuring Wheeler on vocals) set the tone for early 90s mainstream dance music in the UK.

Their follow-up album, Vol. II: 1990 - A New Decade, yielded the hits "Get a Life" and "A Dream's a Dream," the latter featuring operatic vocals by Victoria Wilson-James. While their U.S. following declined somewhat following its release, Soul II Soul continued to have hits in the UK, including 1992's #4 single, "Joy."

Soul II Soul reached Volume 5 of their series for Virgin in 1995, then released 2 more albums for Island Records. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
