:''This article is about the Swedish pop group. For the genre of music called trance, see trance music.'' Trance Dance was a Swedish pop group who had a number of hits in the late 1980s. The group were somewhat rock-influenced, with their music being driven by guitars and other instruments not fully characteristic of a late 1980s pop group. Despite their name, their music did not resemble trance at all. Trance Dance were formed in Sweden in 1985 as a seven-piece group consisting of Ben Marlene (vocals), Pelle Hökengren (guitar), P.J. Widestrand (keyboards), John Stark (bass), Sören Johanssen (drums) and the sisters Susanne and Yvonne Holmström (additional vocals). Ben Marlene had previously been in the Finnish group French Kiss, which existed between 1982 and 1984 and made two albums. Marlene and the Holmström sisters are Swedish-speaking Finns. ==Albums== The group's first album, ''A-Ho-Ho'', was released in Sweden in late 1986 and in the U.S. in February 1987, making number 19 on the Swedish album chart. The albums spawned the two singles, "Do the Dance" and "Hoodoo Wanna Voodoo", and despite receiving a fair amount of airplay in clubs, they failed to chart in their native Sweden. However, "Hoodoo Wanna Voodoo" was a popular hit in Poland. Despite this, their first hit came in October of that year, with "Don't Say Go" making number 2 in the singles chart. The follow-up single, "You're Gonna Get It", also reached number 2 in early 1988. "You're Gonna Get It" would prove to be their most successful single. Their second album, ''Dancing in the Shadows'' charted in March 1988, reaching number 4. Their third single "Joy Toy" would only reach number 13 in the singles chart however, and the quickly-released (November 1988) third album ''Off the Record'' would flop by only reaching number 27. Their final charting single, "Push", reached number 15 in May 1989. With their popularity declining, Trance Dance fell out of the spotlight, charting for the final time with a greatest hits album, ''Greatest Hits Vol. 1''. The album, released in February 1990, peaked at a lowly number 50 in the album chart. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trance Dance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
