Who put out the hit single "All She Wants To Do Is Dance" in 1985?

Don Henley put out the hit single "All She Wants To Do Is Dance" in 1985. The song was the second single from his 1984 album Building the Perfect Beast and became one of his most successful solo releases.

Henley, best known as a co-founder, lead vocalist, and drummer of the Eagles, recorded the track with a prominent electronic-pop and rock sound. Danny Kortchmar wrote the song, while Henley performed the lead vocals and drums. Patty Smyth of Scandal and Martha Davis of the Motels contributed backing vocals.

Despite its danceable title and upbeat groove, the song has a darker political edge. Its lyrics criticize American involvement in Central America during the Contra War, contrasting carefree partying with violence and instability. Released in February 1985, the single reached No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the U.S. Top Rock Tracks chart. It is sometimes mistaken for an Eagles recording, but it is a Don Henley solo single.
