‘All this perpetual motion…’ (Leo Sayer, ‘You Make Me Feel Like Dancing,’ 1976)
It is Monday, and so we dance. To what shall we dance? To Leo Sayer’s #1 hit, “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing,” of course.
“You Make Me Feel Like Dancing” originally appeared on Sayer’s late 1976 L.P. Endless Flight. *Note: For some reason, the video below featuring Sayer performing live on The Midnight Special, repeats itself. The second version of the song is silent and it’s rather enjoyable watching Sayer dance without music.
