1. Victoria is the song - that's the first single, it's what put them on the map. That said I love a lot of the early Dance Exponents songs, Your Best Friend Loves Me Too, Know Your Own Heart, Airway Spies - all awesome
2 The first album, Peace, wonderful.
3 I remember laughing at - in a good way - the video for I'll Say Goodbye and I love the video for Victoria.
4 as per answer 1 really
5 The songs of Jordan Luck are the key; really great songwriter.
Todd Hunter from the NZ Band Dragon (this is the discussion with SANZ and Todd
Todd: My fave DE song is Victoria, I've always loved that song.
I think they are still around because their songs have a good melodic structure and they have become part of the kiwi psyche plus Jordy is a deadset fkn kiwi icon
SANZ: I completely agree there Whatever Happened To Tracey was the first ever cassingle I ever purchased with money I had saved up
Todd: that is my 2nd fave was great to play on the same shows as jordan a couple of years back
he is a good egg
