On the dance chart, "Get on the Dance Floor" was more successful than it predecessor, hitting number one for two weeks in January 1989. It also peaked at number eleven on the R&B singles chart.
"Get on the Dance Floor" samples The Jacksons 1978 song, "Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground) as well as the 1988 track A Day In Your Life performed by Black Riot".
Dance floor may refer to:
"Dance Floor" a song performed by Zapp. It is the opening track from the band's second studio album Zapp II and serves as the album's second single. The song did not chart on the Billboard Hot 100, but it spent two weeks at #1 on the R&B chart, becoming the band's only song to date to reach #1 on the chart.
When Zapp vocalist Roger Troutman collaborated with Dr. Dre and 2Pac for 1995's "California Love," Troutman used the talk box and interpolated the "Shake it" vocal from "Dance Floor" into "California Love."
