"Dance, Dance" is the second single from Fall Out Boy's third studio album From Under the Cork Tree. Released in 2006, the single reached #8 in the U.S., becoming their second Top 10 single. It also reached #6 on the Pop 100. The song peaked at #8 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming their second Top 10 hit there as well.

This song has been included in multiple video games; Burnout Revenge, Madden 2006, the home version of Dance Dance Revolution SuperNOVA, SingStar Pop Hits, and the US version of SingStar Rocks!. It also appeared on the Brazilian version of Infinity on High, From Under the Cork Tree's 2007 follow-up. Pete Wentz prevented the Kidz Bop Kids from singing this on their latest Kidz Bop CD because of the sexual overtones to the song.

Pete Wentz whispers 37-39 seconds into the song. What he says is still disputed among fans.

The demo for the song includes an extra verse that was later cut out of the original.

This song contains elements from the song "Duelo" by La Ley.

[edit] Music video

The music video shows the members of the band performing at a homecoming dance, and simultaneously attending as nerdier versions of themselves.

The music video was filmed at the famous Salesian High School, which is located in New Rochelle, New York, a suburb of New York City. A cameo is made by Ben Jorgensen of the rock group Armor for Sleep as well as Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes.

The video for "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" is a continuation of this video, showing the fans as being cardboard, and the whole thing being fake. Pete's date in the video is one of the attendees at Pete's funeral in this video.

The "Dance, Dance" music video premiered on October 11, 2005, and has been subsequently retired from Total Request Live.


The picture on the back of the book that Andy Hurley is reading at a scene where he is on the bleachers is also on the album From Under the Cork Tree.
