Slow dancin

I got this video from my roommate yesterday

and it inspired today’s song selection. I think dancing is one of the best things you can do with that special person (besides the obvious — see yesterday’s post)Even if it involves a little treading on the toes or the basic middle school sway two people taking the time to get close and move to a rhythm is a beautiful thing.

These are a few good ones to put on the stereo, kick off the shoes and do a little slow dancin…

Wonderful Tonight – Eric Clapton
Cliche? Yes but for a reason. Its slow sweet and sexy.

At Ease In The Arms Of A Woman – Amos Lee
This song just gets me. A wee bit on the sweeter side of blues but given real character by the country/jazz/soul influence Amos Lee is so good at.

You’ve Really Got A Hold On Me - Smokey Robinson & The Miracles
This classic is ideal for a little flirtier old school dancing. The kind I imagine would happen a lot more if life were more like Dirty Dancing.

And for a little bonus…
Slow Dancing In A Burning Room – John Mayer
