It&rsquo;s about balancing emotions. You are always walking a thin line and you have to keep your balance. You have to dance with that line in order to keep standing. If you stay too rigid, you will fall. I was in Zimbabwe a few years ago and I saw some really drunk people dancing,&quot; Tavares chuckles. &quot;We were watching them, and they were always almost falling and then they would catch themselves. Just like those people dancing, I also want to dance with that kind of freedom and balance.&quot;Fri, 25 Jul 2008 09:23:15 -0500http://saratavares.calabashmusic.com/#album_50167
