You know when you look down at your Tamagotchi and it's dancing and singing with little music notes? I love it when my Ichigotchi bops back and forth to its own little tune. Have you ever noticed that you were listening to music at the same time?

What makes your Tamagotchi dance?

None of my characters are teens right now, but the last time I had an Ichigotchi I noticed a coincidence. It was often dancing when this particular song came on the radio: "Paralyzer" by Finger Eleven. They're a little Canadian former punk rock band that is now totally commercial radio rock. I have one of their old albums but the new stuff is pretty lame. It's a silly little song about dancing at a club and seeing a beautiful girl. But my Ichigotchis like it! Now that I think about it, I dance a little when it comes on the radio too.

Next time you notice your character dancing, try to remember what tune was on in the background and post here!

Or, if there's a song that's special to you and you think it represents your Tamagotchi, post that here too!

Or if there's just a song you like and it's even remotely Tamagotchi-related, post here!

Let's get audio-visual!

Oh! I keep a journal called a 'Rabble Pad'. It's a cheap booklet where you write down the most random of thoughts, and things that have happened if they pop into your head. I happen to have this in one of my journals from last year:

My Tamagotchi is singing along to SOAD! Awesome!

That was on May 19th, '06. Haha. I love it when I catch them singing along, I'm usually singing along too. At least my flatmates can't hear them. T__T

(SOAD - System of a Down)

  That's awesome, that's exactly the sort of moments I was trying to describe. That is so funny.

I was listening to "Don't Cha" or something like that on my mp3 and my Ichigotchi started dancing.

The Pussycat Dolls are such a guilty pleasure of mine... Nicole Scherzinger is so beautiful and they're all such great dancers that I find their music videos hypnotic! Ever since I started watching Search for the Next Doll I've been secretly wanting to buy PCD (their album)... the songs are so catchy! But I've spent so many years pretending to be a music snob and only buying obscure and difficult music (the more independent the better)...

Whenever I hear their songs I remember what the videos look like and I think of their rock-hard abs and I'm like "suddenly I feel like going on the treadmill". So really, I should buy the album for my own good!

I just looked down and saw both my Marumimitchi and Kuchipatchi singing along to Fiona Apple's "Waltz (Better Than Fine)"! I must admit, I started it.

Well, even though none of my Tama characters actually dance on the screen (because I don't have any connections going at the moment) I decided to put my radio up really loud today and dance around with my Tamas There was no one home so I figured why not? XD I think Mimitchi was very tired after that. I was in a weird mood today, I don't normally dance around to music, hehehehe 

and that is my little moment in Tama history for today

Cute story, Dennis!!

I caught my Mametchi bopping along to the theme music from when I was playing Pokemon Pearl today. I thought that was pretty funny.

My Debatchi was singing along to Deerhoof just now. Cool little girl, she's into indy noise-rock.

Hah, an Ichigotchi dancing to System of a Down. Love that band.

I've noticed that my Tamas seem to dance the most when I'm humming something from a TV show or anime. 'Wake Up Angel' from Pita Ten? Yep. 'Dog on Fire', of The Daily Show? Yep. 'Jamie and the Magic Torch'?...yeah, that too. 
They have, on occasion, enjoyed with me something like Punchline or Muse, though.
