So, we got the great dancing video threads. I'm putting together tonight's play list, and I've come across some real gems that I believe should be Swing Goth Anthems. I mean sure there's Voltaire's, "When You're Evil," and the old standard, "Violent Love." But I'm talking about real hidden gems. Some of you have shared some with me privately. Anyone want to post some here in public? List the song, and why (in your mind) it's a swing goth anthem. I'll start....

NoDisco - Depeche Mode
Tue, April 22, 2008 - 3:22 PMNominated for lyrics:
....
This ain`t nodisco
And you know how to dance
Move me disco
Baby don`t you let go
This ain`t nodisco
Part one, act one
Everyone pretend
This ain`t nodisco
This is no story
And they`re reaching the end
This ain`t nodisco
Always makes me happy
When you`re taking a chance
This ain`t nodisco
And you know how to dance
