To finish the dance facing the front (on wall 8), dance the first 14& counts then touch LEFT toe behind RIGHT & 1/2 unwind turn LEFT. Great song. A dance that needs to be danced with feeling, really stepping out and moving into steps. Formatted: David Powell, 9th December, 2003. http://triode.net.au/~dragon/ldance
