Dancing Machine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Dancing Machine" is a 1973 song recorded by The Jackson 5, released as a single in 1974. The group's first US Top Ten hit since 1972's "Sugar Daddy", "Dancing Machine" reached number two on the Billboard pop music charts and number one on the R&B charts.
The song, which reached gold selling status, popularized the Robot dance routine, devised by Jackson 5 lead singer Michael Jackson. Jackson first performed the dance while singing "Dancing Machine" with the Jackson 5 on an episode of Soul Train and several other shows for the next three years.
"Dancing Machine", originally recorded for the group's 1973 album G.I.T.: Get It Together, was also the title track of their 1974 album Dancing Machine released in 1974 as a remix for a response to the success of the single.
