Your selection of three Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers' best dance duets would be hard to top. However, I would add a fourth number: "Let's Face The Music And Dance."

Daily Horoscope for January 4

Virgo

The world is your oyster. There isn't anyone you're afraid to talk to or any situation you're afraid to place yourself in. The word 'extrovert' must have been coined just to describe you. You're the master of time at the moment, cutting through red tape and getting right to the heart of the matter. If you use the right words, you can make anyone see your point of view, even if they don't agree.
