Here’s a short review of the music played during the first part of this week’s Strictly Come Dancing Show.
Anthony Ogogo and Oti Mabuse – Jive to ‘Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go’. The rhythm and tempo of the original by Wham!
Our Love Is Here to Stay – Frank Sinatra
A Classic Slow Foxtrot with lyrics very appropriate on a Wedding Day or Anniversary.
Lyrics
“It’s very clear
Our love is here to stay
Not for a year, but forever and a day
The radio
And the telephone
And the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies and in time may go
But oh my dear
Our love is here to stay
Together we’re going a long long way
In time the Rockies may crumble
Gibraltar may tumble
They’re only made of clay
But our love is here to stay”
You’re The First, The Last, My Everything
Really appropriate song for a Wedding First Dance.
The original version of this by Barry White is a classical for Hustle
This version by Peter Grant is perfect for a Slow Foxtrot
Lyrics:-
My first, my last, my everything
And the answer to all my dreams
You’re my sun, my moon, my guiding star
My kind of wonderful, that’s what you are
I know there’s only, only one like you
There’s no way they could have made two
You’re all I’m living for, your love I’ll keep forevermore
First, you’re the last, my everything
In you I’ve found so many things
A love so new, only you could bring
Can’t you see it’s you? You make me feel this way
You’re like a first morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I can love you ’til the day I die
You’re my reality, yet I’m lost in a dream
You’re the first, the last, my everything
I know there’s only, only one like you
There’s no way they could have made two
Girl, you’re my reality, but I’m lost in a dream
You’re the first, you’re the last, my everything
