I was asked to choreograph a dance by Michael to this song from his debut CD, and was

very impressed when he sent me the CD to listen to. There are also a  few other songs

that I like very much, and that make me want to dance to them, so perhaps this will

be only the first of my ' Michael King dances'.

The CD is titled Radio Ranch - have a listen, I'm sure you'll like it, and I hope you

enjoy the dance, I think it's pretty easy. 

You can find about more Michael and hear some sound clips of his songs on his website:
