Summer breeze, Isley brothers version, brings a smile to my face every time I hear it, not really a dance tune, more of a swoony sway ha

I was about to post the same song, Naomi. Not my favourite Queen track, but possibly their most inspirational.

Canary, you need to sing up a bit ;)

[naomi24]

Ken, when that plays I can have a party all by myself!

[Ken4155]

I'm not a dancer, Naomi, never have been - bar the odd smooch at the end of the night - so my happy songs are those which invoke memories of the good times.
I was sitting pondering which of them was my favourite when, as if by magic, Radio 2 kindly reminded me playing this immediately after the 11 0'clock news;

Same as Mr T, with a good few beers added! Nowadays his knees wouldn't allow it! I just used to get up and dance!

As creaky as I am, it still gets me moving as soon as I hear it!

Awesome Queen song ,some on here may have noticed I have a slight affection the band.. I could never whittle it down to ten tracks... always changing :-)

However purposely not selecting a Queen song this always makes me feel happy:
