El policía: << ¡Me encanta esta canción, "Bailar en la calle ' muchísimo, y no puedo dejar de bailar! ¡Si alguien no apaga la música pronto no podré continuar dirigiendo el tráfico y quizás podamos quedar aquí hasta al fin del día!! jajajajaja >>

The police officer: "I just love this song, 'Dancing in the Street' and I can't stop dancing! !f someone doesn't stop the music soon, I will not be able to continue directing the traffic and we could be (stay) here all day! (literally: to the end of the day!) hahahahaha "

I just love this song = I love this song sooooo much! The word just is used in this context/sentence only as an intensifier: ie, for emphasis! = Muchísimo (so / very much)
