The song itself is good to dance to, but extremely annoying to listen to (and there are many dance songs I love to listen to, so basically I dislike the song). You should still give it a listen, though. I think lately my grammar-nazi tendencies are starting to slide -- that paragraph above bothers me because there are so many hanging "to"s, but I can't be bothered to rewrite it. The only error in your list that I really can't stand is loose/lose. Wow, I hadn’t noticed the error in the title until now!

What's worse is that most people *don't* know that the latter word exists, and act self righteous about them either nor existing or meaning the same thing.
