THURSDAY MUSIC APPRECIATION – JUMP
The other day I asked all my Tweeps on Twitter to Twat me their favourite songs to play at gym, as I was making a new mix.
They sent some beauties, some of which I used. Then I used an incredibly powerful section of my brain to think of some more.
And then it hit – undeniably the greatest gym song of all time (I clocked 5kms in 20 minutes) – JUMP, By The Pointer Sisters .
I know you THINK you know the song. But you haven’t heard it for a while and I think you need to loosen up a bit, my baby.
Do it now. Play the video.
TURN IT UP!!!!
Jesus, it makes me SO crazy!!
JUMP
The Pointer Sister
Your eyes[yeah, feel it!] tell me how you love me
Can feel it in your heart beat
I know you like what you see
Hold me, I’ll give that you need
Wrap your love around me
You’re so excited, I can feel you
Getting hotter, oh baby
I’ll take you down, I’ll take you down
Where no one’s ever gone before
And if you want more, if you want more
More, more, more
Jump for my love
Jump in and feel my touch
Jump you want to taste my kisses
In the night then
Jump, jump for my love
Jump, I know my heart can make you happy
Jump in, you know these arms
Can feel you up
Jump, you want to taste my kisses
In the night then
Jump, jump for my love
You told me, I’m the only woman for you
Nobody does you like I do
Then make a move before you try and
Go much farther, oh baby
You’re the one, you, you are the one
And heaven waits here at my door
And if you want more,
If you want more, more, more then
When you are next to me, oh I come alive
Your love burns inside
Feels so right
Come to me if you want me tonight jump
Jump if you want to taste my kisses
In the night then
Jump, jump, jump
Jump, you know my heart can
Make you happy
Jump, you know these arms can feel you up
Jump in, you want to taste my kisses
In the night then
Jump, jump for my love
Come on, people, LET’S DANCE!!!!
YEAH!!
For the first time in a LONG time, I feel like a REAL woman!
WHOOAH!!
[spins on heel, biting bottom lip, eyes closed, bounces into the air, up and down a few times, shrieking, with finger pointing to the sky, like a dancing queen..]
*cough* sorry about that.
For a real treat, check out all the inmates of this prison in the Philippines doing a routine to the same song – click here.
And yes, of course I’ve seen the ULTIMATE prison dance video – the one they did using Michael Jackson’s Thriller. It’s too good (22 million views and counting). Click here for that.

Seth, please can you post some suggestions that were passed on to you?? Trying to update my gym playlist myself, because if I hear Olivia Newton-John “Lets get physical” once more I might just go crazy!
Top 20 Gym Songs maybe?

You know it’s better. So, I demand this gets its own feature in a future post.
Thank You.
