Why are we engaging in this waltz exercise?
Apropos of nothing, isn't there a Richard Thompson song about waltzes?

ETA: Yes. "Waltzing's for Dreamers." Sweet and sad.

One step for aching
Two steps for breaking
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love

It was a "holiday lunch". The holiday party was fully alcohol-fueled. This was just an add-on in light of the strike.

Take this Waltz by Leonard Cohen. That is so obvious even I could get it!

No. British folk musician -- Fairport Convention, solo, etc.

1952 Vincent Black Lightning. One of my favorite songs.

More importantly, waltz a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?

And "Adore" by Prince is also waltz.
Think weddings... think weddings...

OK, someone else got it while I was thinking.

How about something quite the opposite:

Are you lonesome tonight?

I think songs with "waltz" in the title are too easy and could be searched for.

I have not been able to locate a list online. Well, I found one, but it had stuff I didn't know on it.

"Could I have this Dance" by Anne Murray.

ETA: STP. I should have known the Canadian would get it.
