*Starts 0:46 into track on the word Sharpest “When the sharpest words wanna cut me down” (Listen to the words up to this point and feel the desire to mean something build in the song.)
*Most of this dance is meant to be done somewhat aggressively. During the 10th rotation, the artist is singing without the accompanying voices so your steps should be a bit lighter.

As I taught this on the 2018 Caribbean Line Dance Cruise with Donna Manning, Terri Anderson, Rob Holley, and Tina Foster, I reminded everyone that I only choreograph to songs that truly speak to me and I told the dancers why and how this track touched me. In Jan 2017, the club I had taught for nearly 9 years closed its doors without warning. Left with nowhere, locally, to continue teaching, I wondered if I’d ever dance again. I had pressures from very personal relationships to give up my love of teaching line dances. In Dec 2017, a new club opened and as I taught those first few nights, I had never felt more alive. In Jan 2018, I saw the movie (The Greatest Showman) from which this song appears in the soundtrack and I cried through the entire piece. Dancing! Teaching! THIS IS ME!
