Across the crowded disco room



Oh, how I need this weekend! It may have only been a short post-Easter week - but after a lovely break away from all that, the pain of being sat in a hideously stuffy office - while outside Spring is at its very best - is creeping through to my very bones...

Still, we have Imelda Staunton in Gypsy to look forward to tonight - and the inimitable Edwin Starr (ably accompanied by the suited-and-booted-wide-collared-and-flared dancers from Soul Train) to get us in the mood for a party - so thank heavens for small mercies, I say. Roll on 4.30!

Thank Disco It's Friday!


Across the crowded disco room
Through a maze of dancing people
She sits so quiet and all alone
Wanting to get the disco fever

And then she raised her head
Her eyes caught mine
And that was all that I needed
In her eyes I saw the need for love
The warm, soft feeling
'Cause we made

Eye to eye contact
Eye to eye contact (Oh, oh, oh yeah)
Eye to eye contact
(We made) Eye to eye contact
You and me

Contact!
You were looking at me
I was looking at you
You were looking at me

Across the crowded disco room
Oh, your eyes told me the story
My heart was beating like the drum
As I fought my way over

I never took my eyes away from yours
Not even for a moment
What I saw in your eyes made me realise
(You I wanted) Yeah, yeah, yeah

Eye to eye contact
(We made) Eye to eye contact (Oh, oh, oh yeah)
Eye to eye contact
(We made) Eye to eye contact
You and me

I was looking at you
You were looking at me
I was looking at you
You were looking at me

Contact!
Girl don't you get uptight
Just dance
Everything gonna be alright
Just dance
Take a chance
Oh, and dance

I sure like what you got
You sho nuff looking hot (dance)
I sure like what you got
You sho nuff looking hot (dance)
Yeah, come on and dance


Oh, yes!

Have a good weekend, laydeez'n'gentlemen...
