I Just Want to Dance with You - Daniel O'Donnell - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"I Just Want to Dance with You" is a song originally popularized by George Strait, written by John Prine and Roger Cook, and featured on the 1998 album One Step at a Time. The song, a blend of country musical style with a romantic theme of longing for closeness through dance, had been covered before by Irish country and folk singer Daniel O'Donnell in 1992. Unlike George Strait's version's undeniable country flavor, Daniel O'Donnell's take on the beloved ballad opted for a smoother tropical feel, opening the track with a melodic marimba line. The song was a hit for the Irish star, reaching number 2 on the Irish charts and peaking at number 20 in the United Kingdom. "I Just Want to Dance with You" was included in Daniel O'Donnell's 1992 album Follow Your Dream, which landed in the Top 20 of the UK charts, later obtaining Silver certification. George Strait's rendition was also massively successful, topping the US Hot Country Songs chart upon its release in 1998.
