~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love to dance to the music of The Rolling Stones, one of the longest-running rock bands since the sixties. The band’s music is raw with energetic blend of blues, rhythm and blues, rock and roll and baroque rock or pop. Slow dancing to the ballads of Angie and Wild Horses let me bring out the emotional depth of the melody and lyrics through emotive flow and applying Tango improvisation to Paint It Black with its unique sound. Fusion dancing to Ruby Tuesday, a baroque pop and You Can’t Always Get What You Want, a rock with slow ballad like tempo to fast, to create contrasting styles and freestyle dancing by mixing various genres to Under My Thumb. Swinging, jiving, rocking, strutting, like Mick’s strut and shimmying to Tumbling Dice and Honky Tonk Women. Dave, the pianist and vocalist of a two men band plays The Stones songs for me and calls me The Stones Girl.
