The Prodigy | No Good Start The Dance (1994)

"No Good (Start the Dance)" is a song by English electronic music group the Prodigy. The song was written and produced by group member Liam Howlett.

It was released in May 1994 as the second single from their second studio album, Music for the Jilted Generation. The song is built around a repeated vocal sample from "You're No Good for Me" by Kelly Charles (1987).


Howlett initially had doubts whether to use the sample because he thought it was too pop for his taste. The song also contains samples from "Funky Nassau" by Bahamian funk group the Beginning of the End.


In 2012, NME listed the song in the "100 Best Songs of the 1990s" at number 33.
