I don't wanna dance - Eddy Grant

This song sounds incredibly dated now, but back in 1982 it was a huge hit, reaching number 2 in the Dutch Top 40 and number 1 in the UK singles chart! It was Eddy Grant's first number one hit in the UK since 'Baby come back' by the Equals (of which he was a member) in 1968.

The track was recorded in Barbados for his album 'Killer on the rampage', which reached number 7 in the UK albums chart.
