Could you please tell me the artist and title of the song if possible:

Parts of the song that are stuck in my head:

?Can you feel it? Come on feel it .... were dancing through the night?
(I think this is part of the chourus)

It sounds like an 80?s or 90?s song and it is a woman singing.

Hi jonharman,

I haven't been able to locate the song based on the lyrics you
provided. Are there any other words you can remember?

Could these be the lyrics to the song?

"So let's get started baby you and I
Go on with your bad self dance all night
So can you feel it I can feel it heah
So can you feel the beat with the base drum
Doing it doing in your feet hear the car drum"

Rainbow~

Hi rainbow,

Thank you for helping me with this song. Those are not the lyrics I am
looking for. The song is played on a Soft-Rock-and-roll radio station.

When I looked at the lyrics I posted I see no that they really are not clear. 

The emphasis should be on "Can you feel it?" then there is a 2 sec
pause (music playing) "Come on feel it" another brief pause and then I
can't remember the exact words she says but it would have another line
and then "We are dancing through the night." And then it repeats from
the beginning.

Jon

Could it be "What a Feeling" by Irene Cara?

"What a feeling
Bein's believin'
I can have it all, 
Now I'm dancing for my life ...."

Hi Jon,

To make it official, I'll repeat that excerpt from "Flashdance (What a
Feeling)" (official title), performed by Irene Cara:

"What a feeling
Bein's believin'
I can have it all, 
Now I'm dancing for my life ...."
