ABOUT THE SONG

Rhythm Is a Dancer by SNAP! was released in 1992 as a single from the album The Madman’s Return. Written by Benito Benites, John “Virgo” Garrett III and Thea Austin, the song features lead vocals by Austin and became one of the defining Eurodance hits of the early 1990s. It reached No. 1 in the UK and several European countries and became a major international success. The track is known for its driving electronic beat, atmospheric synths and instantly recognisable vocal hook. On ukulele, it is a great song for practising a repeating chord progression, syncopated strumming and strong rhythmic consistency while keeping the energetic dance feel of the original.
