On The Floor (or Dance The Night Away) is a meme based around the song of the same name by American performers Jennifer Lopez and Pitbull. It primarily features characters singing and dancing (or one of them) to the song.
Origin
The song itself was released as the first single to Lopez's seventh album Love?, exactly two months before the album. The song is a EDM-influenced club track with a rap section from Pitbull. Upon release, the track did very well and became one of the highlights of Love?
A music video was released in March that garnered a similar amount of acclaim as the song itself did. It currently sits at over a billion views as of 2017.
The meme itself originated in early June 2011 when user icywintermints uploaded an animation that started with a still of her character as the song's drop builds up. When it drops, the character starts dancing until the end. As of now, the video only sits at almost 500 views.
Spread
Shortly after icywintermints video, more versions began appearing. Certain animators do changes to the first part's formula on times, such as actually singing the build-up section (hence "Dance The Night Away"), but having the characters dance is a component kept.
