RICK ASTLEY - SHE WANTS TO DANCE WITH ME

Hello and welcome back... In between the huge hits Rick Astley was pumping out during the 80s, came this track back in 1988.

'She Wants to Dance With Me' is a happy little number, with an infectious melodie that plays thru the track and Ricks signature vocals... Its one of my favourite songs.

She wants to dance with Me came from the 1988 Album 'Hold me in your Arms'  and made it to No 1 (music charts) in Canada & No 6 in the U.K and was Ricks first ever self composed track....

Awesome

LYRICS (In case you want to sing Along)

She wants to dance
Oooh, she wants to dance with me
Oh wow yeah

There’s a girl I’ve been meaning to see
And I really get the feeling that she likes me
Cos she said so, but not in so many words
I’ve got to tell you what I’ve heard

She don’t want no wild romance
When she’s with me she only wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

Now I know I’ve been out of touch
And I never meant to hurt my baby oh so much
Cos I love her and I think she loves me
And that’s the way it’s got to be

When we’re together we never fight
We’ve got better things to do tonight

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance
She wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

STREETHEART - ONE MORE TIME

Hello and welcome back... Love this track, such an amazing sound...
Canadian band 'STREETHEART' released this killer track back in 1982.
In 1975, vocalist Ken Shields, Daryl Gutheil (synths) and Ken Sinnaeve (bass) formed the band Wascana. After being renamed Witness, they then went through another name change when guitarist Paul Dean and drummer Matt Frenette joined... And Streetheart was born.
