This lovely song by Tantowi Yahya was given to me by Ronnie Wee from Singapore.

Thanks also to Gloria Mortimer from Singapore for her interpretation of the songs name.

It’s a slow, feeling song and that combination always appeals to me . Hope YOU like it too.

I find it is definitely more challenging to dance slowly than it is to dance fast because

you just can’t fudge any of the steps. Also, balance and timing is much more critical.

Enjoy the dance! See you on the floor sometime.... Jan
