This challenge, started by @jokossita here, is a great incentive to dig into those dusty old memories. Music can have powerful associations to a life long forgotten - hopefully more good than not.
Day 17
A song that makes you want to dance
There are many, many songs I could have chosen from, but my first dancing-love is the classic Rock'n'Roll, and this song has a great beat for doing just that.
So what song did I choose? Runaround Sue by Dion
From the song's Wikipedia page it says:
Dion stated in his autobiography "The Wanderer" that although his wife's name was Susan, Runaround Sue had nothing to do with her. However, during a 1990 interview with his wife on the Oprah Winfrey Show, they presented the story that the song was indeed about her.

On the singer's Wikipedia page it states that his singing career began in 1957, and he is still performing today, and
whose work has incorporated elements of doo-wop, rock and R&B styles—and, most recently, straight blues
Now, try and tell me you still don't want to get up and dance around the room after listening to this song. :D
This is the list from which the music challenge is based off of. I will be modifying some of the questions if more fitting.
Come along on this musical journey with me.
