Choreographers Note:

This has been another one of those dances which has been a long time coming.

The music is on my compilation No.5 but I didn't get around to writing the dance

until January 2001. I thought it would be hard to write because the music was so

badly phrased, but it proved to be easier than I had envisaged and I enjoyed doing it. 

It could have done with a few tags here and there, but it didn't seem too bad without

them - so I left them out….just so I wouldn't have to listen to the moans and groans

that go hand in hand with tags!!!!  Hope you will enjoy the dance  and I know you

will love the music because it is a beautiful song and Jann Browne does it full

justice.!!!! See you on the floor sometime…..Jan
