Another fan favourite! The 'Come Dancing' Music video 🕺🏻 | The Kinks

#TrackoftheWeek Come Dancing 🕺🏻 Come Dancing is a Kinks classic, which even won them an award for "One of the most played songs of 1983". The song is about Ray & Dave's sister Rene, and when they used to watch her go out dancing. Heartbreakingly, on Ray's 13th Birthday, Rene gave Ray a guitar, before heading out to the dance hall, where she sadly had a heart attack and passed away. | The Kinks
