What a great song! Makes me feel like jitterbugging all around the house! I believe this music could make my 7 rooms of housecleaning go a lot faster!!! HAHA! Thanks for the great clip, Aaron. And Don, you have the gift of leading that anyone could follow. You sure know how to make your partner look good. Thank you for the dance.. I truly do not know how those straps kept from slipping to my ankles. What a risky choice of footwear! The bottoms of those sandals were so hard and inflexible and the straps cut off the circulation to my feet. They went to the dust bin after this show! I also mourn the loss of Sir Sean Connery. He left us a treasure of memories that we can continue to draw from for eternity. RIP A big shout out to all front line workers, first responders and caregivers for stepping up to give of themselves without reservation or bias. Your sacrifice does not go unnoticed. You are all heroes. I appreciate this AB Channel for bringing folks together around the globe who can share a common respite from our daily lives. For many of us it causes memories to surface that we had forgotten. The music is visceral and brings back feelings that were buried.Thoughts of people from our past come into our vision. It is really quite astounding what a two minute and thirty-seven second clip can do for the soul. As Tuesday rolls around here in the USA, let us all be grateful for something. Let us all try to find commonality with each other and strive to unite our country. Gather olive branches and share them with those who are most distant. Imagine...

Well said Peggy. I think the sandals looked great on you....too bad they were so uncomfortable. Another little slice of American Bandstand history 😃 As one of those front line workers, I’m very much looking forward to, hopefully, returning to some degree of normalcy after this brutal election, and all of the political unrest, riots, the disease etc...Here’s to a quiet, peaceful 2021!

Aaron I know ther have been tough times in the medical profession but I want to give a shout out to the wonderful mecical staff at OSU hospital because earlier this week my cousin's husband received a heart transplant and as of now he is doing very well. Thursday, he was able to get up and walk briefly and sit upright for a couple of hours. The donor heart was a perfect match. Sorry to digress but let's all give a stand up and shout out to all the medical professkions, whether it be COVID, heart transplant, or anything requiring medical attention. Please everyone stay afe, mask up, don't forget to turn your clock back one hour here in the states and don't forget to vote too!!

When I lived in southern Spain during the 90's, Sean lived with his wife in a villa next to mine. When he and his wife travelled, they always asked me if I would look after their dogs. We also had a mutual friend, named Lois Maxwell, Lois played the character Miss Moneypenny, in all the Bond films with Sean. I met Lois in the 80's, such a wonderful woman, and we met for lunch at least once a month. However, I actually met Sean a year before we became neighbors. One night I was sitting at a beach front cafe having a few drinks with my Spanish girlfriend, and when my girlfriend went to light her cigarette, a well spoken voice from behind us, rather deep and gravely said, allow me! It was Sean Connery, so he lit her cigarette and wished us both a pleasant evening. As we were leaving, I went to pay our bill, only to be informed that a gentleman had already paid for all our drinks, that was James Bond of course! R.I.P. The best 007.

I don't think I've heard this before. Our dancers seemed to need to get the feel for the song and then were golden. Coming out of those theater seats looked like a real pain in the patoot! Peggy and Don, you guys danced really well together! In my opinion, every bit as well as Peggy and Frank. Is Frank dancing with Peggy's sister Dona? Did Buddy Schwimmer and Olivia generally partner? Also....Mr Mustache guy is at 2:23 . Wish we knew his name! The world will not be the same without Sean Connery. I've always had a huge crush on him! Another sad mark in this horrible year No tricks or treats tonite. It isn't safe. For some reason I'm only now noticing that Spencer Davis passed away on October 20. One of my FAVORITE videos that Aaron has ever posted is The Spencer Davis Group and Gimme Some Lovin'. Teenager Steve Winwood killin' it! The regulars looked like they couldn't wait to leave the bleachers! I could dance to that song allllll day!! Thank you Aaron for today's video and Spencer's as well ❤. Stay safe everyone.
