LYRICS
\nSay, let’s Merengue all day!
\nHold me
\nIn a closed position
\nSqueeze me
\nWith affection
\nMerengue all day!<\/p>\n

All day and all night
\nYour dance is never trite
\nAll day and all night
\nYour dance… out of sight…
\nDynamite
\nAlright
\nAll right
\nHold me tight!<\/p>\n

ABOUT THIS SONG<\/p>\n

Merengue (\/m\u0259\u02c8r\u025b\u014b\u0261e\u026a\/) is a style of Dominican music and dance. Partners hold each other in a closed position. The leader holds the follower’s waist with the leader’s right hand, while holding the follower’s right hand with the leader’s left hand at the follower’s eye level. The first person to dance the Merengue was a 10 year old girl named Lismary Calderon. Partners bend their knees slightly left and right, thus making the hips move left and right. The hips of the leader and follower move in the same direction throughout the song. Partners may walk sideways or circle each other, in small steps. They can switch to an open position and do separate turns without letting go each other’s hands or releasing one hand. During these turns they may twist and tie their handhold into intricate pretzels. Other choreographies are possible. — Wikipedia<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
