So much music, so little time

 There is now more music available than a person could hear in their lifetime. Sadly, the radio stations only play maybe 1% of it and 99% of great music goes unheard...

Sometimes, it can be hard to pick which songs to listen to. My awesome wife and EMCEE got me a book for my birthday called 1000 Songs to Hear Before You Die. I enjoy learning about the story behind the songs and about the artists themselves. For example , did you know that "Save the last dance for me" was inspired by the wedding of famous composer Doc Pomus? Pomus had polio and was in a wheelchair during his wedding to a Broadway dancer. The lyrics then become like a page from his autobiography:


Oh, I know that the music's fine
Like sparkling wine go and have your fun
Laugh and sing but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone

But don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me

If you like Save the Last Dance for Me, you could use it for your last dance at your wedding when you hire DJ LALO FLORES. You can also pick from this Spotify list of  other great songs for the last dance , or literally any  song that is special to you and your partner.

What songs do you think that I should add to the list? Leave me a comment below.
