Roei Freilich-Tonight She'll Dance

It's officially Spring meaning the first wave of spring weddings before the Counting of the Omer. I personally enjoy engagement parties much more than the weddings themselves and this video really captures the magic of it-just a group of close friends celebrating the good news with just the right amount of people and (so it seems) the right amount of alcohol. If Roei's voice sounds familiar it's because he's the lead singer of the much loved band Reines Girls (bandcamp here)-don't worry, they're not breaking up-just on a break since bassist Guy Goldstein is currently living in the States for a few months. I love how Freilich is experimenting with new material and this is his third single (and so far my favorite) after 'Electrical Storm' and 'ADD' from his upcoming album 'Raising Smoke'. I also love how the songs don't take themselves too seriously-just excellent music to dance to at a memorable party.

I dance and don't sweat it
I'm afraid that my steps are limited to rules
I trip and don't keep the pace
And disgrace the floor with ill dances

At home on the screen
There's one who is waiting
If I miss my goal
In front of her I'll stain my bed
But maybe tonight she'll dance with me

I stand on it and don't reach
And cling to the tops of tall trees
My pride is now at the height of grass
I'm willing to compromise even on flashing lights
Light...light...light...
Lights!
Light...light...light...
In the end she'll nest, with me she'll grow old
Lights!

At home on the screen
There's one who is waiting
If I miss my goal
In front of her I'll stain my bed
But maybe tonight she'll dance with me
Maybe...maybe...maybe...maybe...tonight she'll dance with me
