Title
The Crance
Hi, Luke Ski here, and today I present a cover of a song written and originally performed by my brother Michael and his band at the time 'Whatfor'. As the story goes, once while at a gig while another band was playing an up-tempo number, Michael observed a sad gothy kid up against a wall, who was bopping to the music while maintaining his morose pose. Michael turned to one of his band mates and said, "He doesn't know if wants to cry or dance. I guess he'll just 'crance'." That was this inspiration for this ginchy Liverpudlian jam for all you emo kids on the dance floor.
Music by Bonecage, backup vocals by TV's Kyle & Lindsay Smith, and Big Bopper Breakdown by Chris Mezzolesta of Power Salad!
So everybody join in and fake it 'til you make it with THE CRANCE!
Michael's current music project is under the name M.T. Foyer.
You can hear the original version of "The Crance" by Whatfor on the FuMP Sideshow

There needs to be a response song to this, a parody of "Safety Dance" called "We can crance when we want to."

Ultravox should retitle "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes" to just "Crance".

I highly enjoy this cover of this song, as well as the cover of the description of the song, copied near exactly from your own words on the original post. Well done! ;-)

I too am a HUGE fan of the original song - it pops up on my iPod fairly regularly - and all this time I had no idea it was your brother! Nice cover, Luke!!!

It's so sad... that we can't post images here! I found the perfect one for this. Well done Luke.

Excellent, Luke! Gives me all kinds of ideas..."You can crance if you want to..."

Something's broken here. It doesn't play, the downloads are a couple hundred bits, and the iTunes feed won't load it.
