I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance Madame with you
My heart won't let my feet do things that they should do
You know what, you're lovely you know what, you're so lovely
And you know what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor
When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle
Specially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos
And that's why I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music lead the way to romance
So if I hold you in arms I won't dance
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance Madame with you
My heart won't let me feet do things that they want to do
You know what, you're so lovely, ring a ding-ding, you're lovely
And you know what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor
When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle
Specially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos
And that's why I won't dance, I won't dance
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in arms I won't dance

Will Young, all'anagrafe William Robert Young (Hungerford, 20 gennaio 1979), è un cantante e attore britannico, diventato famoso dopo aver vinto la prima edizione del concorso Pop Idol. Il primo singolo di Young è stato un doppio lato A con Evergreen, cover dei Westlife, e Anything Is Possible, un brano inedito scritto da Cathy Dennis appositamente per il vincitore di Pop Idol. Nel marzo 2002 questo singolo è diventato il debutto più velocemente venduto in Gran Bretagna, vendendo 403,027 copie nel giorno della sua uscita (1,108,659 copie nella prima settimana). Il singolo vendette oltre 1 milione e settecentomila copie, raggiungendo l'undicesimo posto nella classifica ufficiale dei singoli più venduti di tutti i tempi in Gran Bretagna compilata in quell'anno. Will successivamente ha rivelato di essere gay, al fine di anticipare l'outing preparato da un tabloid. Ha anche affermato di non averlo mai nascosto e di essere perfettamente a suo agio con la sua sessualità. Ha vinto il Brit Award come migliore rivelazione e numerosi altri premi. Gli altri singoli degni di nota sono The Long and Winding Road (in duetto con Gareth Gates), Light My Fire, Leave Right Now (tutti hanno raggiunto la numero uno della classifica britannica) e Friday's Child, che è anche il titolo del suo secondo album, contenente numerosi brani di cui è il co-autore. Il disco è stato cinque volte disco di platino, ha ricevuto numerosi premi e i favori della critica. Ha vinto un secondo Brit Award, nel febbraio 2005, per il singolo Your Game, scritto in collaborazione con Blair MacKichan. Dopo un tour nei teatri nel 2004 che ha registrato il tutto esaurito, nell'estate 2005 ha partecipato ad alcuni festival europei. Il 6 luglio 2005 si è esibito all' Edinburgh 50,000 - The Final Push, l'evento conclusivo del Live 8, concerto di beneficianza ad Edimburgo in favore dell'Africa, dove ha fatto un duetto con James Brown cantando Papa's Got A Brand New Bag. Successivamente, lo stesso anno, Young ha incontrato e stretto amicizia col comico David Walliams, partecipando allo spettacolo live a Manchester di Little Britain, e registrando con Walliams un podcast in cui i due parlano di vari aspetti della carriera di Will. Il podcast è disponibile sul sito di Young [1] o su iTunes. Il suo terzo album, Keep On, è stato pubblicato nel Novembre 2005, in contemporanea con il primo singolo estratto Switch It On. Sempre dal questo disco sono stati estratti un secondo singolo, All time love, che ha raggiunto il numero 3 delle classifiche e un terzo, Who Am I, (pubblicato nell'aprile 2006), accompagnato da un video innovativo ispirato ad un vecchio episodio dello show per bambini Blue Peter. Il 1º maggio 2006, Young è stato votato come l'artista britannico preferito di tutti i tempi in un sondaggio di una radio commerciale, superando Robbie Williams, Paul McCartney e le Spice Girls. Il 20 maggio 2006, ha cantato "Who Am I", "Leave Right Now" and "Love the One You're With" al trentesimo compleanno di Prince's Trust.
