My dad and mom introduced to to my older siblings and me when I was about 6.
They danced to it so beautifully like their bodies were one. I loved it from that day.
Brook and Dinah also had a few other lovely hits on an album. She was schooling him during one song for being out of sync. It was kept in the song and made it sweeter. Lol
