From the recording Bare Essence
This is the song that started it all. While at the home of a friend I wrote this song as something to do when I heard this simple beat. I feel in love with the melody and as the lyrics flowed from my mind to my pen Slow Dancing was born. My friend wasn't serious about music or performing since it was something she did years ago as a drummer with BB King but I was alive with excitement. She deleted this song from her computer system and all I had was the old version on a disc in a drawer. This was not the track that I would have preferred to publish, the others were much better but still all in all it is a great song and didn't deserve to die. In 2010 when my brother heard it and also feel in love with it he told me publish this song. He painted a beautiful picture in my mind of happy couples swooning and caressing to this song. That was what I wanted to see people dancing like old black n white movies in "old fashion" love. This is a throw back song. It's clean, simple, and romantic. Enjoy.
