    You can't but not love this song. A classic that will always be around. They don't make songs like this anymore

    So terrific and nostalgic. Bobby is at his best and Barbara is so feminine and sweet - I love that big bow on her dress.

    Bobby was a genius of the couples dance form. On Lawrence Welk you can see how he put a lot of demand on his female partners. The product is somewhere at the crossroads of Corny and Cringe, but they are 99.9% flawless and 100% entertaining. I also enjoy his tapdance trios with Arthur Duncan and Jack Imel where it's obvious that he's following Duncan's choreography instead of being the star. Always the quintessential showman.
