From this top 40 i can see which songs are popular and which genre appears the most. There are not a lot of dance songs in the top 40 however there are many songs which have been remixed which would be classed as dance music. Such as; I gotta feeling - Black-eyed peas, Sexy Chick - David Guetta, etc. Therefore, i can see dance music is popular.
