Baisse-Bas (Pt. 2 - see Pt 1 for explanation and instruction
of the dance) -
Bonnie Thomas and Les Berenson doing the Baisse-Bas, a Greek Mazurka waltz done to Canray Fontenot''s song Bon Soir Moreau. PJ Schlessinger and Diana taught this to many of us at Augusta Heritage Dance camp (West VA). Canray played his last dances in Seattle and Port Townsend before he passed away in 1995 and told me the story behind the Baisse-Bas (means bend low as digging potatoes).
Moreau owned a house of brothel in Basile (near Eunice).
As he would be leaving, his patrons would wave to Moreau saying
Bon Soir Moreau (good night Moreau) as they thought he was going to be with his wife and kids, and Canray with his pearly white teeth shook his head and said nope he was going off to be with another woman!

Elton John - Rocket Man (Final Tour L.A. Nov 2022)

Rocket Man (I Think It's Going To Be A Long, Long Time)"
She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hour: 9:00 AM
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact, it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
And all the science, I don't understand
It's just my job five days a week
A rocket man
A rocket man
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
