"Rhythm Is a Dancer" is a song recorded by the act Snap!, released as a single in the second quarter of 1992, from the album The Madman's Return. It was written by Benito Benitez, John "Virgo" Garrett III (aliases for German producers Michael Münzing and Luca Anzilotti), singer Thea Austin and rapper Durron Butler and produced by Snap! It achieved a huge success in many countries, becoming a top 5 hit in the U.S. and topping the charts in France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. It has been argued that it was the first Eurodance single ever released. The music video for "Rhythm Is a Dancer" was directed by Howard Greenhalgh and shows singer Thea Austin and a backup band at a rocket park filled with smoke. Austin and her group perform the song on elevated platforms while a group of dancers dance on a closed ground platform below them. Interpersed throughout these scenes are animated shots of flickering astronomy/aviation maps and animated figures dancing. "Rhythm Is a Dancer" has been covered by numerous artists including Italian radio host Leone di Lernia who recorded a parody of the song in Italian,[4] Max Deejay who recorded an instrumental cover in 1997, System Drivers in 2002, The Superb, a Brazilian rock & roll act produced by Chilean DJ Sokio)[5] in 2005, Israeli acoustic music artist Sagi Rei for his 2005 album Emotional Songs, Chic Flowerz feat. Muriel Folwer in 2006, Berk and the Virtual Band for the 2007 album Jazz Chill, Vol. 2, Hermes House Band on the 2009 album Rhythm of the Nineties, Rod Jones on A Sentimental Education released in 2010, and DJ/producer Kylian Mash under the name "Madinshina - Rhythm is a Dancer 2010". Furthermore, it has been used for the basis of the 2010-track "You and Me" by Danish group Electric Lady Lab. On November 28, 2010, Romanian dance singer Inna covered the song live.

  • "It's a source companion"? I checked the lyrics online and you're right, but wouldn't "It's a soul's companion" make more sense? That's what I thought it was all these years but I guess not.

  • LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!
