Very nice music, but the title does not mean anything! My love means 'Amore Mio' I think the title should have been Innamorato Mio not Amorato Mio! Anyway nice dance too.

Sir Dancelot December 4, 2011

Thank You Lu for your comment. There is already a dance by the name AMORE MIO. I did not want to confuse anyone, so I chose this name.

Lu December 4, 2011

Thanks for your comment. I can see now why you gave this name to the dance, as I said, its a nice dance to a nice music. I also love 'Mi Reina'. As you can see, I love latin music!!! Thanks for your lovely dances.

Lu December 4, 2011

Forgot to mention 'Caballero' which also is a lovely dance. Thanks

Sir Dancelot December 4, 2011

Thanks for mentioning CABALLERO. I'm glad you like it !!

Sorry for this dance not one star - for me "five stars".
Thank you for this dance - we are the first Linedanceteam in Carinthia (Austria) who dance Caballero and we love this dance. Today we are learning the new one (Amorato Mio).

Sir Dancelot December 5, 2011

Thank You Helmut for your very kind comment. Good Luck with Amorato Mio !! Ira

lovely music nice easy dance to start or cool off with.Have also done Caballero very popular here on Anglesey, Slip Away is also a very nice flowing dance and Mi Reina is certainly different although easy steps it does make you think!!

Sir Dancelot December 7, 2011

Thank you graiglas for your kind words.

When you love the music, ultimately you will love dancing to it.
It's a sweet simple dance where everyone of all ages can dance to.

Sir Dancelot January 30, 2012

I agree, Mizam !!
