about

One of the bands most popular hits taken from their 1977 album Bad Reputation. The songs full title is "Dancing in the Moonlight (It's Caught Me in Its Spotlight)"

For this tribute we roped in multi instrumentalist Dave McKeown who is featured here playing the Sax for us. For both me and Allan it was bonus and an honour to have Dave onboard as we both used to do this song many years ago live in our own respective bands, and never had the privilege to have a Sax player with us.

lyrics

When I passed you in the doorway
Well you took me with a glance
I should have took that last bus home
But I asked you for a dance

Now we go steady to the pictures
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
And my father he's going crazy
He says I'm living in a trance

But I'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

It's three o'clock in the morning
And I'm on the streets again
I disobeyed another warning
I should have been in by ten

Now I won't get out until Sunday
I'll have to say I stayed with friends
But it's a habit worth forming
If it means to justify the end

Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

And I'm walking home
The last bus has long gone
But I'm dancing in the moonlight

[Instrumental Break]

Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night
