 Always liked the song. Thought with the popularity of Dancing with the Stars, this would be an appropriate presentation. Keyboard was added into the scene because the instrumental featured the organ. Blurred feet (dof) on the dance floor were deliberate. . . to great the illusion of dancing motion.

Hey T, Think that magic marker might work for the current Color Crayon challenge?

Brilliantly simple, those onion dancers. (Never underestimate a man who will decorate his wife's hostas with magic markers).

Why the childtoy looking keyboard in the back? I would apreciate this much more without it. But that just might be me!
