    I was in the gym taking a break when This man came in with his phone blasting this song, he started waving his arms in a circular motion to stretch, the man literally did not care what people thought. He's my inspiration.

      I mean it is a great song that can also be inspirational to fighters since fighters sometimes call a fight a dance. That's the way I like to interpret it in my head anyways and translate it to "the fighter becomes the fight"

    Back in the days when music was great, 80’s the best decade in music, I turned 9 in 1983 and one my birthday gifts was the soundtrack audio cassette, that I still have 40 years later.

    Corrected lyrics:
    Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night
    looking for the fight of her life
    In the real time world no one sees her at all
    they all say she's crazy
    Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart
    changing movements into light
    She has danced into the danger zone
    when the dancer becomes the dance
    It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
    on a wire between will and what will be
    She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
    She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
    On the ice blue line of insanity, is a place most never see
    It's a hard won place of mystery, touch it but can't hold it
    You work all your life for that moment in time
    It could come or pass you by
    It's a push, shove world but there's always a chance
    if the hunger stays the night
    There's a cold kinetic heat, struggling, stretching for the peak
    never stopping with her head against the wind
    She's a maniac, maniac I sure know
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
    She's a maniac, maniac I sure know
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
    It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
    on a wire between will and what will be
    She's a maniac, maniac I sure know
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
    She's a maniac, maniac I sure know
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
    Maniac, maniac I sure know
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
    She's a maniac, maniac I sure know
    and she's dancing like she's never danced before
