My excellent taste in music

I always loved this song...

Every day is a Saturday, in the month of Spring
Seems the world is full of girls
Lookin' out for that love thing
The hood's down, we're cruising downtown
Just hangin' with my friends
The radio's ready to blow
We're getting in that vibe again

[Chorus]
When your body keeps swaying side to side
Your spirit is free, it feels good to be alive
Oh yeah, that's the swing (swing..)
When you're happy to face the day with a smile
Open your heart, let somebody inside
Oh yeah, that's the swing (swing..)

(When you wake up in the morning and your soul is singing, that's when you're swinging.)

Everyone is having fun, like a holiday yeah
Plain to see she's the one for me
Don't need words to communicate
The music's loud, we're foolin' around
Just getting in the groove yeah
The sun's out, a lot of people about
We're checking out the views

[Chorus]
When your body keeps swaying side to side
Your spirit is free, it feels good to be alive
Oh yeah, that's the swing (swing..)
When you're happy to face the day with a smile
Open your heart, let somebody inside
Oh yeah, that's the swing (swing..)

It's a kinda faith that you believe
To free your soul to fly
Kinda hope that makes you see
Your dreams can come to life

[Chorus]
When your body keeps swaying side to side
Your spirit is free, it feels good to be alive
Oh yeah, that's the swing (swing..)
When you're happy to face (when you're happy) the day with a smile (oh yeah)
Open your heart, let somebody inside
That's the swing.. (swing..)

(Here I am...)
When your body keeps swaying side to side
(I've gotta try to make you understand..)
[Fade out]

I interviewed these guys back in 1996 - quite a shock to find this on YouTube, showing that they're still around 10 years later and performing it at Butlins..
