    My wife and I will be married 42 years in two weeks. She lost her hearing 3 years ago due to tumors on her auditory nerves, but before she lost her hearing, I could put this song on, and she would come running from wherever she was to dance with me.

    Why is it that 70s music was and stillis so good ? Feel sorry for youngsters who never got to appreciate it like us older ones . So much talent around back then so many wonderful writers and musicians.

    I Love this song. It's the song that was playing the first time the love of my life and I made love for the first time 42 years ago. It was so romantic and special. Something I will never forget. Love you Always and Forever Delbert ❤️

    HOW...Do you tell that special someone just HOW MUCH you really love him/her when you just can't come up with the words?
    This is why a TRUE LOVE SONG is so hard to write with the words available in any vocabulary.
    The old school love songs come the closest. When you shed tears because you can't come up with the true words for what you feel, describe these things with every fiber of your heart.

    This and "i love you" Climax Blues Band, are probably the 2 best make out songs ever written. My wife also likes "Sharing the Night together", by Dr. Hook. "Slow Dancing..." reminds me of the roller rink! This & "Sometimes When We Touch" were the "go to" slow songs. I was young, so I didn't get to enjoy them as much as I would have liked, but... They all STILL put a smile on my face (& a tear in my eye)🥲

    I remember this song as a teen ager (yeah, i"m old). Great song and great memories, but I would swear it was in response to a song that was derogatory to slow dancing - but I've repressed that song. Still one of my favorite songs that I can also enjoy in the back country with my boys listening and sipping cousin Jack.

    Then I met my wife, my boots have only been under one bed, for many years.
    Thanks for your efforts Dj, lotta sweet memories. Also, I subs, be checking out your catalog. Thanks again Dj
