Thanks to Censor from Pulse, a
quote from the writer of Dance With Me, Dan Rockett:
Quote:
Timbaland got signed to Interscope and one night he was in the studio while I was there and needed a guitar player, so I wound up playing on "Timothy Where Have You Been?" I hit it in one take and he was impressed. I got in with Timbaland and his crew and realized from hanging out with them that I understand what it takes to produce pop songs.
I wanted to give it a go so I wrote a song called "Dance With Me," which I imagined as a David Bowie/Lady Gaga duet (laughs). It was an exercise in songwriting and I didn't expect it to do anything, but one night at the studio Polow da Don came out at 4 AM to use the bathroom and I said, "Bro, I wrote a dance song." He gave it a listen and said, "You wrote a classic people will sing in 50 years."
