Suggested ending: Song ends after Wall 10, Section 3. You are facing the 3:00 wall for counts 1-4 of Section 3. On counts 5-6, step RF forward and do a 1/4 pivot back to 12:00. Triple step in place R,L,R on counts 7 & 8 and hold.
 
Optional styling suggestions: Doing all the triples in place with slightly bent knees will help add some hip action. The hold on count 7 of the syncopated V step in Section 4 is a great place for a single shoulder roll.
 
Music note: Van Morrison recorded a couple different versions of this song. This version is from his 1979 release, Into the Music.
