two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Mainstream

Circle left
I never felt more like singing the blues
I never felt that I'd ever lose

Allemande the corner gal, dosado
4 men star by the left hand
Gonna meet your gal and turn thru
Allemande left, come back and promenade
You promenade her home
You got me singing the blues

FIGURE    Plus, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru and get 4 hands
Gonna meet your corner, touch 1/4
Follow your neighbor and spread
Explode the wave, bend the line
Load the boat
Swing the corner, promenade
You promenade for me
You got me singing the blues

FIGURE (ALTERNATE 1)   

1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru, 4 hands around & a right & left thru
Veer to the left, ferris wheel
Centers right & left thru
Veer to the left and then crossfire
Do a walk & dodge, swing the corner
You promenade her home
You got me singing the blues

FIGURE (ALTERNATE 2)    Plus, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) promenade go half around
Into the middle and star thru
Pass thru and then dosado to waves
Relay the deucey
Swing the corner, promenade
Promenade her home
You got me singing the blues

FIGURE (ALTERNATE 3)    Plus, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) square thru, 4 hands around and then
Touch 1/4, follow your neighbor and spread
Ladies trade, recycle, veer left
Couples circulate, ferris wheel and then zoom
Square thru 3/4 round
Swing and then you promenade her home
You got me singing the blues

CLOSER    Plus

Circle left
I never felt more like singing the blues
I never felt that I'd ever lose

Allemande the corner girl, all 8 spin the top
Box the gnat, right and left grand
Meet your partner, promenade
You promenade her home
You got me singing the blues
