Our songs those days were "Ring my Bell," "Hot Stuff," "Shake Your Bootie" or was it boogie? Saturday Night Fever songs were in the list too.... and I remember I love to dance to medley songs sung by Beatles many many other songs..
Actually I really love going to parties but always ended up going and coming back in fear.... the word "Party" is a taboo word in my house... so my sisters and I normally had to evade that word from our mouths.... and the curfew time would be before 10.30pm. We had to be home by that time and that was only when the real party began!!
Gosh, how I wish I could go to parties at this era of time where I am not answerable to anyone ... now that I am so free... but alas, no more such parties anymore....
Come lets twist again.... like we did last summer......
very cute photo of you...looks like 18 yrs young
ReplyDeleteMy mum was a tea dance kaki too. In the story she often recounts to me, many girls of those days got to know their the other half at tea dance parties and that's how the romance began... How romantic...
ReplyDeletekathy: thank you.. i was 48 then.. hahaha...
ReplyDeletepam: i think yr mum and I same era then.. yes, those days, infatuation was common among us.. hahahaha.
He he he...now you've made Mak isah thinks of my younger days :) Mak isah also 'kaki' dance!
ReplyDeleteWah, look so young, Let's Twist Again!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Me too! But my songs a bit older than yours...and anyway, by that time when your songs were hits, I was still swinging and shaking and twisting away!
ReplyDeleteThose were the days when we danced and danced and had good clean fun - none of those booze, sex and drugs...like young people today.
Come, organise a gathering...and bring on back the good times!!! Hopefully, these old bones can tahan! LOL!!!
