Mamae loves to dance...

Mamãe e papai sempre ouviram muita música lá por casa.
Dos tempos em que mal andava, mas já dançava... dos tempos em que pedia para a minha mãe cantar e não para contar histórias... dos tempos em que queria brincar com os discos de 45 e de 33 rotações e em que estraguei umas agulhas para os ouvir...
Desses tempos, lembro-me do Fausto, do Sérgio Godinho, do Zé Mário Branco. Do Stevie Wonder, do Barry White, do Isaac Hayes...
E lembro-me dos meus pais a dançar aquelas músicas dos "eight'es".
Músicas soltas que ouço e associo aos dois.

Hoje, porque sim, lembro-me de uma música que associo sempre "a mamãe".
Para ela...


"I Love To Love (But My Baby Loves To Dance) (Tina Charles)

(chorus)
Oh I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
He wants to dance, he loves to dance
He’s got to dance
Oh, I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
Oh, I love to love
But there’s no time for our romance, no, no , noooo
Oh, I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance

The minute the bands begin to swing it
He’s on his feet to dig it and dance the night away
Stop, I’m spinning like a top
We’ll dance until we drop
But if I had my way

(chorus)

Oh I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
He wants to dance, he loves to dance
He’s got to dance
Oh, I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
Oh, I love to love
But he won’t give our love a chance, no, no, noooo
Oh, I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance

Stop, I’m spinning like a top
We’ll dance until we drop
But if I had my way
Sometimes, instead of going downtown
We’ll stay at home and get down
To what I’m trying to say

Oh, I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance, yeah, yeah,
Oh, I love to love
But my baby loves to dance, yes he does(x3)"
