FOOTLOOSE ~ KENNY LOGGINS

**************************
Bluedreamer's Choice No 37
**************************

"Footloose" is a single by Kenny Loggins which spent three weeks at number one, March 31—April 14, 1984 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and was the first of two number-one hits from the motion picture, Footloose. The music video features several scenes from the film, in particularly the warehouse where Kevin Bacon's character performs an unorchestrated dance routine (which was actually performed to a different song in the film itself). The lyrics describe a young man who can't stop dancing and he encourages others to do the same: 'Cut Footloose' as the chorus suggests.The song was very well received, and is one of the most recognizable song recorded by Loggins. When the American Film Institute released its AFI's 100 Years…100 Songs, "Footloose" reached the 96th position. The song was nominated for an Academy Award but lost to "I Just Called to Say I Love You" by Stevie Wonder.
