Pop Brilliant: Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes

“Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes” by Paul Simon

Paul Simon’s possibly my favorite songwriter. Top five, for sure. And this is my favorite of his songs, for very personal reasons. See, there’s no better song for dancing around the house with your daughter on Saturday morning than this brilliant song about, well, dancing and falling in love.

It’s perfect in every way a song need be perfect. Try to resist dancing and singing. Try to resist smiling about someone you love. This is a song for those who dance and those who love and those who dance with those they love.

Go dance with someone.
