"Everybody Dance" is the second single from the first album ''Chic'' by the band of the same name. It features Norma Jean Wright on lead vocals. Luther Vandross appears on background vocals. According to Nile Rodgers, it was the first song specifically written for Chic, and, due to its historical status and popularity, is usually played as the opening song of the band's live set. It was later heavily sampled by British pop group Steps on their UK number 1 "Stomp" in 2000 and by the Manic Street Preachers on their single "(It's Not War) Just the End of Love" in 2010. The song has featured in films such as ''The Last Days of Disco'' (1998) and ''Summer of Sam'' (1999) and is also featured in the ''Grand Theft Auto IV'' expansion pack ''The Ballad of Gay Tony'' on the radio station K109. Unlike most Chic singles, its 12" version was not included on a regular album, nor was it widely available upon original release, with the 12" format being issued only as a promo. The extended 12" version has, however, subsequently been issued on numerous compilations. Also unlike most Chic singles, the b-side "You Can Get By" was edited down from the original album track; almost all future Chic b-sides would be presented in their full-length versions. ==Track listings== ;Atlantic 7" 3469, 1978 *A.
