The song was an international success, topping the charts in France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. It also reached the top-five on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number one on the Dance Club Songs chart.[2] It spent six weeks at the top of the UK Singles Chart, becoming the second biggest-selling single of 1992, surpassed only by Whitney Houston's version of "I Will Always Love You".[3][4]

"Rhythm Is a Dancer" was originally never planned to be released as a single. Good club reactions to that track, however, made Snap!'s German label, Logic, change their minds. Logic arranged a private test at its own discotheque, the Omen, to see how well the public responded to the new song. This is where the instant club appeal of "Rhythm Is a Dancer" first came to notice. Rapper Turbo B, who rejected the song when he first heard it, would go on to add a rap stanza to the track.[5]

Snap! won the 1992 Echo award for the Best Selling Single of the Year with "Rhythm Is a Dancer".[6]

Lyrics and music

In the 7-inch version edit of "Rhythm Is a Dancer", it features a rap verse by Turbo B.

According to Miz hit. tubes, a book which analyses the French pop charts, "This discotheque song alternates female singing in the chorus with fluid, set black male raps in the verses. These are tinted with a resonant sonority, which gives them an astonishingly melancholic softness, for a dance hit. That gives the whole track a particular colour, almost nostalgia."[7]

The rap lyrics on the album version (not the 7-inch version) are a slightly modified version of the following lines from an essay by John Perry Barlow called "Being in Nothingness Virtual Reality and the Pioneers of Cyberspace" and were performed by studio engineer Daniele Iribarren.[8]

How very like the future this place might be: a tiny world just big enough to support the cubicle of one Knowledge Worker. I feel a wave of loneliness and head back down. But I'm going too fast. I plunge right on through the office floor and into the bottomless indigo below. Suddenly I can't remember how to stop and turn around. Do I point behind myself? Do I have to turn around before I can point? I flip into brain fugue.

The song was originally released as a bonus track on "The Madman's Return" CD, and did not appear on the initial vinyl release. The rap was replaced by Turbo B when it was decided that it would be released as the second single off of the record.

It also contains what one critic called the worst lyric of all time, "I'm as serious as cancer when I say rhythm is a dancer".[9] The original album version of the song did not contain the line, which is found on the more widely known 7-inch version edit of the song that was later added to the album. The immediate reaction of Turbo B when presented with the line was reportedly 'No way am I singing that shit!' [10] Although Snap! were criticized for the lyric and Turbo B later stated he hated it, the line had been used in hip hop music since the late 1980s.[9]

"Rhythm Is a Dancer" contains the hook/riff sample from the 1984 song "Automan" by Newcleus, written in the key of A minor with a tempo of 124 beats per minute[11] in common time. The song follows a chord progression of F–G–Am, and the vocals span from A3 to C5. The bassline groove repeats an A-F-G-A pattern with anticipation quavers. During the rap break the music hangs on Am/A chord/bass combination.[12]

Critical reception

AllMusic picked "Rhythm Is a Dancer" as one of the "standout tracks" on The Madman's Return album.[13] Linn Gjerstad from Norwegian newspaper Bergensavisen noted that the song is "a good example" that Snap! "can handle" computer music.[14] Bunte called it "The mother of all Eurodance songs".[15] Entertainment Weekly commented that the "dance-floor anthem became the stuff sweet Club MTV dreams were made of."[16] Tom Ewing from Freaky Trigger noted its "stateliness and spaciousness" and described it as "higher minded, more spiritual".[17] Dave Sholin from the Gavin Report wrote, "Two years ago, "The Power" dominated radio both here and abroad. Snap! kind of dropped out of sight since then, and they mark their return with a Euro-Dance sound that's a mega-hit internationally. Sparks fly from start to finish."[18] James Arena, writer of Stars of '90s Dance Pop: 29 Hitmakers Discuss Their Careers wrote, "From its distinctively electrifying opening chords to its powerful rolling beats, unusually poetic lyrical depth and robust vocals, "Rhythm Is a Dancer" (...) is one of the most recognizable success stories of the '90s."[19] In their review, Lennox Herald stated that the song is "more house oriented than their previous hits."[20] Music Week said that the song is "their most commercial offering since the introductory smash, The Power, it's also their most credible dance groove, and is sure to race into the Top 10."[21] James Hamilton from Record Mirror noted the "Giorgio Moroder-ish buzzing synth".[22] Tim Southwell from Smash Hits praised the track, commenting, "Snap have gone back to their club roots here with a wonderfully infectious and simple dance shimmer which features Spanish guitars and a wispy choir vibe".[23]

Chart performance

"Rhythm Is a Dancer" was the second single by Snap! to reach number-one in the United Kingdom, the single remained six weeks at the top position in 1992, from 2 August to 13 September.[24] It is their biggest hit single to date, with 492,175 sales during the original UK chart run. A massive hit across the world, it also topped the chart in Germany for ten weeks. In the United States, it peaked at number 5 in early 1993, and spent a total of 39 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100.[25] In France, "Rhythm Is a Dancer" debuted at number 5 on 8 August 1992, before climbing to number-one four weeks later (where it stayed for six weeks). The song thus became the first dance single to hit the number-one position on the French Singles Chart. Additionally, the single also peaked at the number-one position in Austria, Belgium, Ireland, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and Zimbabwe, as well as on the Eurochart Hot 100 and the RPM Dance Chart in Canada. It earned a gold record in Australia, Austria, France, Italy, Sweden, the UK and the US, and a platinum record in Germany and the Netherlands.

Snap! themselves re-recorded their own song in 1996 and 2003, the latter with CJ Stone (as "Rhythm is a Dancer 2003"). It reached number 17 on the UK Singles Chart in May 2003. On 25 May 2008, "Rhythm Is a Dancer" re-entered the UK Singles Chart at number 36, climbing as high as number 23 two weeks later. BBC Radio 1 DJs Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates theorized it was based on download performance, due to its inclusion in a television advertisement for Drench water.

Music video

The music video was directed by British director Howard Greenhalgh and premiered in July 1992.[26] It was filmed at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, and shows singer Thea Austin, and Durron Butler (Turbo B) playing a bass guitar in the rocket garden, which is filled with smoke. Austin and her group perform the song on elevated platforms, while a group of dancers balanced their dance moves on a closed ground platform below them. Interspersed throughout these scenes are animated shots of flashing aviation maps, as well as animated figures balancing their dance moves. Prior to that video's release, this was the last video to feature Durron Butler (Turbo B) before he left Snap!. This was also the last video to feature Thea Austin before she left the group. The music video was uploaded to YouTube in February 2016. By August 2020, it had more than 26,6 million views.[27]

At the time of release, Montreal Gazette music critic Kathleen McCourt praised the video's "originality in costume and design" but wrote in disdain, "Don't waste your time with this clip."[28] In 1994, Alf Björnberg wrote that the "video is manifestly non-narrative", that the visuals are music-reliant, and that the video's content is "not strongly structured by the visuals nor by the music".[29]

Impact and legacy

In the 2017 book Stars of 90's Dance Pop: 29 Hitmakers Discuss Their Careers by James Arena, singer Thea Austin said about "Rhythm Is a Dancer":

I believe "Rhythm Is a Dancer" resonates so powerfully because it is spiritually and creatively blessed. The producers and I had amazing energy and great intent in our creative process. The melodies are hypnotic and make people feel good, like a nursery rhyme that people gravitate towards. The music is so unique in that there was and is no other song that sounds like "Rhythm Is a Dancer". To me, it was a perfect marriage of music and voice. (...) People wanted a song like that back then—something to kickstart their day, free them up. It was a time in life that people were being liberated, like in South Africa or for the LGBT community in the States, and the song represents that liberation for many people.[30]

VH1 placed "Rhythm Is a Dancer" at number 36 in their list of "100 Greatest Dance Songs" in 2000.[31]

MTV Dance placed the song at number four in their list of "The 100 Biggest '90s Dance Anthems of All Time" in November 2011.[32]

On 31 March 2012, "Rhythm Is a Dancer" was chosen "Best Song of the Nineties" in the Nineties Top 99 on the Belgian Radio MNM for the fourth year in a row.

BuzzFeed listed the song number 30 in their "The 101 Greatest Dance Songs Of the '90s" list in 2017.[33]

In 2020, The Guardian ranked the song at number 69 in their list of "The 100 greatest UK No 1s". They added,

"Dance-pop in the 90s often traded in profound melancholy – Haddaway’s What Is Love and Corona’s Rhythm of the Night being other classic examples – and Rhythm Is a Dancer is one of the saddest of all. With its gospel vocals and cathedral-ready chords, it makes raving feel like a serious spiritual quest rather than something to do on a Friday."
