For the Carpenters version, do the dance as is. For the Barry Manilow version, do the first wall as is. After the first pattern, omit counts 61-68 for all remaining patterns.
This dance was choreographed for a dancer in our area named Dawn. Dawn has contributed greatly to the line dancing community over the years. She even taught me how to smile when under pressure:-)
