Calvin Harris Defends His ‘Dad Dancing’ At Glastonbury

Calvin Harris checked in with fans on his blog at MySpace on Wednesday (July 9) after a performance of ‘Dance Wiv Me’ with Dizzee Rascal at the Glastonbury Festival last month. The British artist writes:

I’m sure some of you caught the acoustic performance of “Dance Wiv Me” at Glastonbury, which, in turn, means you almost certainly witnessed my “Dad-dancing” on live television. (you can find it on youtube if you missed it)

Now, sometimes I do wonder why I place myself in these situations, but if you’re asked to go on the BBC to do a song with Dizzee you can’t say no. What would YOU do?!

Of course the problem with this is my “singing” parts of the song amount to all of 30 seconds, leaving me with a full 3 minutes of… well… dad-dancing.

It’s clear I can’t dance, we all know that, look at the facts:

*Scottish

*White

*6′5″

*Awkward in social situations

I could go on.

So don’t slate the dad-dancing, celebrate that it happened, laugh, enjoy it, tell your friends.

    My friend met Calvins dad in a forest in Dumfries and said his dancing on his ski poles up a scree slope was amazing, so he shouldn’t be too upset to be described as a ‘Dad Dancer’.
