Don’t you love learning a new line dance? I was the queen of knowing how to do them all but now there is a new one that just came out! Miss Robbie — from OWN’s hit series “Welcome to Sweetie Pie’s” — has released a new original song and accompanying music video “Do the Sweetie Pie.” The song is based on a new slide dance called “The Sweetie Pie.” Come inside to check it out!
Miss Robbie’s son Tim Norman wrote and co-produced the song and directed the music video which will be featured on the October 5 episode of “Welcome to Sweetie Pie’s,” airing Saturdays at 9pm ET/PT.
“It was my first time recording in Lord knows how many years,” remarked Miss Robbie, a 1960s backup singer and former Ikette. “After my lung collapsed, doctors told me I’d never be able to record again, but you never know what God has in store for you and you’re never too old to try. When my son Tim wrote the song for me I thought it would be a fun thing to do together—don’t just chase your dreams, catch them.”
“It started out as a birthday gift for my mother,” says Tim of the project’s origins. “Even though she sang for years, she didn’t have a song of her own and I wanted to do something special for her that we could create together—something she would really remember.”
Both hope the “Sweetie Pie” will eventually join the ranks of other classic slide dance traditions such as the Electric Slide, the Wobble and the Cupid Shuffle
