PRICE OF LOVE
CHOREOGRAPHER: William Sevone (WM '71) (July 11th 2002) Fremantle, Australia
email: williamsevone@yahoo.com.au
COUNT: 56
TYPE: 4 Wall Line Dance
LEVEL: Intermediate
MUSIC: The Price Of Love by Everly Brothers-122 bpm ('Greatest Hits'/'Big Hits'/'Essential Collection')
The Price Of Love by Bryan Ferry-138 bpm ('Single (E.P.)'/'Greatest Hits')
Choreographer's note: The correct phrasing for this piece of music would have led
to possible 'tags' here, there and everywhere and believe me, a lot of confusion if
used as the basis for a dance. This being the case and not wanting to lose any of
the 'flow' within the music I have created this dance with an unusual (but very
workable) count of 56. If using the Bryan Ferry alternative, besides being much
faster, it features a restart and different ending due to the length of music
(please refer to seperate notes).
