Todays song of the day is Save the Last Dance For Me, written by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman. The song was made famous by The Drifters, back in 1960. Now here is why this is the song of the day. The song was written at Doc Pomus wedding. His wife was a famous Broadway singer and dancer. When they were married, Doc Pomus had Polio, and used a wheel chair to get around. The story has it, as Doc Pomus watched his new wife dance with person after person, he wrote down the lyrics that would become the song Save the Last Dance for Me. Knowing that it did not matter how many people she danced with, at the end of it all, she would be with him.
