Rocktober Music Fest – 2019 – and other October Oddities Sir, Please

Posted on October 21, 2019 by scr4pl80

I said yesterday that my husband and I saw REO Speedwagon in a show at the San Jose Civic and that the opening act was a band called “Sir, Please” which included Kevin Cronin’s twin sons, Shane and Josh Cronin.

Shane and Josh Cronin 
The other members of the band include Michael Leese, who reminds me of a young Jon Cryer (think Pretty in Pink), Marshall Via, who reminds me of a young Tom Petty, and David Kohn who doesn’t remind me of anyone but plays a pretty good set of drums!

 Since “Dance” is my word of the year, I was particularly struck by this song called “Dance With Me.”  Have a listen and read the lyrics below.

LYRICS



I get around but I want you to show me how,
How to lay my heart out on the line.
Should I finally mean it this time?
What is it about you and the way you move, you can groove to the beat of my heart.
Maybe cupid’s just doing his part.

‘Cus I know that I’m yours.
So meet me on the floor.

Dance with me, move your body baby this is meant to be.
Flowing like the ocean you’re so heavenly.
I gotta get you tonight.
Why don’t you dance with me.
Don’t tell me that it’s love i know it’s got to be
‘Cus when were on the floor its only you and me.
I know we won’t sleep tonight.

She calls me with her eyes they tell of paradise, baby show me a new point of view.
Prove to me that this story is true.

Cus I know that I’m yours.
So meet me on the floor.

Dance with me, move your body baby this is meant to be.
Flowing like the ocean you’re so heavenly.
I gotta get you tonight.
Why don’t you dance with me.
Don’t tell me that it’s love i know it’s got to be
Cus when were on the floor its only you and me.
I know we won’t sleep tonight.

Dance with me, move your body baby this is meant to be
Flowing like the ocean you’re so heavenly.
I gotta get you tonight.
Baby why don’t you dance with me.
Don’t tell me that it’s love i know it’s got to be
Cus when were on the floor its only you and me.
I know we won’t sleep tonight.

I think this is a really catchy tune and I have been listening to it a lot while writing this post.  I’m going to keep my eye on these guys to see if they release some more songs.  I know they did a few others last night but some of them were covers.

I am hoping that the Rocktober Music Fest host, Mary at JingleJangleJungle, allows for new rock music to be included.  What do you think of this one?

    Janet,

    I haven’t heard of this group, so I loved the introduction. They have a nice sound with this light-hearted, feel-good song. How can you have a bad day after hearing it, right? Thanks for visiting yesterday, my dear!
