What we like about The Romantics 1980 smash hit What I Like About You is that it's one of the best Rock 'n' Roll dance songs of the post Rock 'n' Roll era. It has an ideal beat and an exciting sound that just makes a dancers feet really want to spring into action.

When you invite friends around for a party, you're always looking for ways to get some dance happening. Granted when your friends are avid rock 'n' rollers that's not too difficult. However, you do need the right songs.

Many people struggle with this a bit, so let me give you a hot tip. Make your first few songs really count. They set the stage for what is to follow. A track that too fast will only get a few takers. One that's a bit too slow many not get any. This song is a great ice-breaker. It has a lively and enthralling sound that dancers simply can't resist.

According to Wikipedia, The romantics were influenced by 1950s American rock and roll. That's not hard to tell when you hear this song.
