“The whole song’s about being totally wasted at a party,” Lady GaGa explained the origins of “Just Dance” to Digital Spy. “You’re thinking, ‘Oh f*ck, I wanna go home!’, but your friends are like, ‘Don’t go home you loser, have another beer’, so you do, you dance, and then you’re fine”. The original version of this uplifting tale of perseverance featured a Colby O’Donis cameo. The RedOne mix samples Kardinal Offishall’s “Dangerous” which shares its rhythm and tempo.

Stefania Gabriella Germanotta or Lady Gaga has one of the club-bangers of the year with her catchy single “Just Dance”. Stefania is a brand new artist who has just signed her deal with Interscope Records. Her debut album, “The Fame”, has 13 tracks with “Just Dance” being her first single. The official track on the album features Akon’s “secret weapon”, Colby O’Donis. This remix features Canada’s Hip-Hop sensation Kardinal Offishall. The album was produced by Akon and is under his Kon Live label, which is under Interscope. The single is already breaking into the music charts around the world in Canada, France, Germany, New Zeland and Norway. Being that she has such a popular artist, producer and label backing her up, I’m sure we’ll hear much more to come.
