Good evening, Connie!
*HUGS*
Thanks very much for tonight's Favorite Dance Song thread! I just can't pick one out of such an embarrassment of riches! High on the list would have to be "Where or When" and "Theme to a Summer Place." Remember a lot of those sock-hops - Santo and Johnny "Sleep Walk." The list is endless - just give me some time to dredge them out of memory - it's been many a year since I have heard some of them.
Today would be the 85th birthday of my late mother. She's been gone for twenty years - still leaves a tremendous sense of loss.
If you don't mind, I have a memorial to post for her. It is fitting that it should be in this thread - she was very musical - played clarinet and had a beautiful singing voice.
Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Oh Conor I love that you memorialize your Mother so....I can only hope my Son feels the same about me.
Please post it & she was such a beautiful lady.
