LawTalkers - Missing the Paigow (et al.) [sniff]

Apropos of nothing, isn't there a Richard Thompson song about waltzes?

ETA: Yes. "Waltzing's for Dreamers." Sweet and sad.

One step for aching
Two steps for breaking
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love

It was a "holiday lunch". The holiday party was fully alcohol-fueled. This was just an add-on in light of the strike.

Take this Waltz by Leonard Cohen. That is so obvious even I could get it!

"Waltz No. 1" and "Waltz No. 2" off of Elliott Smith's XO. Good stuff.

No. British folk musician -- Fairport Convention, solo, etc.

1952 Vincent Black Lightning. One of my favorite songs.

More importantly, waltz a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?

Edelweiss????

And "Adore" by Prince is also waltz.

Think weddings... think weddings...

Can I have this dance, for the rest of my life?

OK, someone else got it while I was thinking.

How about something quite the opposite:

Are you lonesome tonight?

If you have a vinyl 45 of The Ramones' Comando and you play it at 33 speed, it sounds waltz like.

I think songs with "waltz" in the title are too easy and could be searched for.

I have not been able to locate a list online. Well, I found one, but it had stuff I didn't know on it.
