"Dance the Way I Feel" is the debut single of British synthpop band Ou Est Le Swimming Pool. It was first released on 7 September 2009 as a limited edition 7-inch vinyl, and, on 9 November, it received a wider release across three formats.

Background

Three distinct versions of the song exist. The first appeared on the original release of the single. The second was a slightly remixed version of the first with different vocals, but was only available on a promo edition of the band's debut album. The third is the first with a new drum track added, and is the main single, album, and video version.

On 26 January 2011 the song was voted Number 3 on Triple J Hottest 100 for 2010.
