    “You’re A Friend Of Mine” by Clarence Clemons, 1985.

    LYRICS:

    Striking out?
    Well, count me in
    I'm gonna stand right by your side through thick or thin
    Ain't no doubt,
    Going to win
    A walk through hell ain't bad compared to where we've been
    Oh, you can depend on me
    Over and over, over and over,
    Know that I intend to be
    The one who, who always makes you laugh until you cry
    And you can call on me until the day you die
    Years may come and go, here’s one thing I know,
    All my life, you’re a friend of mine
    That argument, I can't forget
    We fought so hard I don't think I've recovered yet
    The girls we knew, who thought you were cool
    I never introduced my favorite ones to you
    Oh, you can depend on me
    Over and over, over and over,
    Know that I intend to be
    The one who who always makes you laugh until you cry
    And you can call on me until the day you die
    Years may come and go
    Here's one thing I know
    All my life
    You're a friend of mine
    Oh, you can depend on me
    Over and over, over and over,
    Know that I intend to be
    The one who who always makes you laugh until you cry
    And you can call on me until the day you die
    Years may come and go
    Here's one thing I know
    All my life
    You're a friend of mine
    Oh, you can depend on me
    I'll be fine
    'Cause you're a friend of mine
    Yeah, I'll be fine
    'Cause you're a friend of mine
    ~

    Enya's "Fairytale"





    He likes Enya.


    If he hears this song, I hope he likes it as much as I do. And I like this video someone made for the song.

    (A lovely question to post, thank you)

    And this song was the very first dance I choreographed for dancers. (Three dancers.)
    I get chills and almost have tears in my eyes when I hear it.

    Enya "invited" me into another whole realm of existence and I so enjoy choreographing ever since.

    And I 'see' this first dance still, always. The three dancers were so open to my ideas. They were perfect to me.

    Oh, good! I'm glad you like it!
    :)

    (I've always loved this particular piece - - and the night I posted this answer with video, I started watching this -new-to-me video someone made - - I liked it. And then, out of nowhere, that guy is running til the end -- brought almost-tears to my eyes. Moved me unexpectedly.)

    Cold and rainy weather in November might make that shoulder hurt more, lol.  At least it does for my grandmas. This post was edited by Livvie at September 25, 2021 9:39 AM MDT

    This was more because I know he likes the song. 
    But yes cold weather does make arthritis act up.
