First impressions (**Spoiler alert**)

[Jules]

So, you who have already heard his new album.. do you hope he picks many songs from this one for the tour or just a few?

I would like some mixed from Privateering, Ragpickers Dream... also DS of course...and of course some from the new album which will probably happen anyway...

He's having a percussion and a trumpet, which are prominent in the new record, in his live band... What do you think?

Hi guys. A little while ago, intrigued by the next new single out of Mark, I did a search and I found a guy who plays Back On The Dance Floor, as he read it from the tablature. JF, does it resemble the original song?

I guess it was Pavel (Quizzaciously) right ?
can't find the link right now, I'll have more time tonight

No, it wasn't me, although some people made recordings of this sounding cool, but I can't find it.

Yes it was you. But it was also another one who took more work into it. Your version was simply the melody.

A certain Julio posted this at Guy's forum and said it was made by a friend of him.

Ah OK. I read that it was inserted yesterday, so I immediately asked for info. Thank you!

Will be interesting to hear the original finally with all your versions in mind!

If the rhythm and general feel of the song is anywhere near the video, I know I will like it!   In fact it is still in my head - already an earworm!

can't listen to the song right now, but the lick played on guitar on this video seems to be the line "back on the dance floor" sung by background female vocals, and by Mark
i'll check later and will get back

and the tempo on the real song is a little bit faster from memory

just checked again :

that riff is played as intro by a guitar (clean/crunch) and/or a bass
less driven than in the cover, more laid-back style. the saturated guitar is the lead one 

just before the chorus (sort of a "bridge") the vocals sing "back on the dance floor" on that same line : first Mark alone, and then background vocals

an then, background vocals sing along this line : "doowap doowap"...yes I am serious

and then again the pre-chorus and the chorus

the outro is  "doowap doowap" by vocals with synth lines, and lead guitar licks

and the end of the song is just  "doowap doowap" by vocals.....yes I am still serious

so yes that line is the main theme throughout the song, a little bit faster than in the cover video
