Choreographers Note:

This is another older song from The Mavericks that deserves to be danced to, and to

my knowledge it has never been used. The dance is not hard and should be easily

managed by the 'average' dancer. It has no tags, thanks to the fact that the song is

perfectly phrased. What a pleasure it was to write to too! The lead singer for the

Mavericks has the best voice in the business and I can never hear enough of him - what

do YOU reckon? See you on the floor sometime…… Jan
