High 5...a cyber gold star for Lurkah! I've not heard the Ivan Lins rendition but I just downloaded a whole bunch more versions, Sue Matthews included. The original 2 in my iTunes library are Colby & Caruso and Vanessa Williams. Such a romantic song...

Bu...bu...but, Kimo...it's such a romantic song! Are you saying you're not romantic?!

Turn up the quiet...
Love wants to dance...

WOW!

Maybe you youngsters have a different definition of "romantic" than us oldsters?

... one of my favorites by the Ka'au Crater Boys, along with "So Free" from the Making Waves album.

Next:
"Here comes a stingray
"There goes a manta-ray
"In walked a jelly fish
"There goes a dog-fish"

And there they saw a rock
It wasn't a rock
It was a Rock Lobster!

By the B-52's. I used to have that album. "Dance This Mess Around" was my favorite track on that one. The 'Surf Guitar' sound was prevalent throughout the B-52's early albums, with obvious influence from the legendary Dick Dale.

... [...]with obvious influence from the legendary Dick Dale.

Ok...NOW you're talkin' my language!!! The surfer stomp. Rendevous Ballroom on the Newport Peninsula. 1961. Great times surfin' week-end days and dancin' week-end nights. School was only a bridge between week-ends that year! The wardrobe du jour included huaraches and a parka (winter) or a Pendleton shirt (summer)!

Dick Dale and the Deltones was the Rendezvous' house band before they started recording. Great memories!

Re: Name that song...

Re: Name that song...

Hahaha! Very good. I LOVE the B52's, too. I have most of their albums. And yeah, I was into Dick Dale and surf music in the 60's too.

No reply so far on my other one:

"That's OK you got no legs!"

Hint: What's the next line?

Ahem...listen to your elders! "Turn up the quiet/love wants to dance" is a play on words! Think about 'em. It has nothing to do with "whipping the engrish language outta shape" and everything to do with...oh well, if I have to explain it...

Regardless, I still find that an extremely creative, romantic lyric line within the context of a beautiful song; one of my all time favorites. YMMV!

No, Sue. I iz roam antic!
I like that famous ode to impetuous passion... think it was... yes, I remember the title:

"Haste the mood fastly,
I been kicked in the Butt... by Love!"
