        I think this dance looks a lot harder on paper than it really is (only time will tell), so don't be put off by the description. Roxanne and I had fun doing it and it took a surprisingly short time after waiting so long to do a dance together, so we hope you enjoy it too.
The song is from a CD of the same title on Sony label - and those of my vintage will know the original was a hit for Connie Francis way back before Roxanne was born!!!!!!!!!.
