Anita and Gleb are dancing the Rumba to ‘Read All About It’ by Emelie Sande.

Georgia and Giovanni will perform the Paso Doble to Europe’s ‘The Final Countdown’.

Helen and Aljaž perform the Viennese Waltz to ‘At Last’ by Etta James.

Jay and Aliona are performing the Tango to Prince ‘When Doves Cry’.

Katie and Anton will dance the Argentine Tango to Ástor Piazzolla’s ‘Libertango’
.
Kellie and Kevin will Salsa to ‘I Want You Back’ by The Jackon 5.

And Peter and Janette are going to dance the American Smooth to the ‘Sweetest Feeling’ by Jackie Wilson.

I'm calling Kellie for the dance-off right now, and I would previously have said Katie to join her... Libertango though...

When I saw Kellie and Kevins song I though "Oh god no" but there is actually quite a good salsa version so I shall hold out hope for now

5 out of 7 of those have been re-used from series 10 alone...

Will it kill the producers to provide good traditional songs for the ballroom Tango Jay and Aliona song is okay. ..it could have been worse.

Katie has the best music this weekend imo ; Top 3 of my favorites songs for an AT. That song is sublime. I'm expecting this to be brilliant.
Helen and Georgia have very good songs as well.

The rest is Meh.

Some absolutely rubbish music and some good in there.

Libertango fab. Sande of course.
Final Countdown is one great big bag of dog shit!!

Well, I was hoping for good music for Katie's AT...

...I am not disappointed; Libertango's a dream song for an AT on Strictly!

No horrific choices but they all seem a little 'meh'. I'm pretty sure lots of these have been used before...

Nobody should be allowed to use "When Dove's Cry" after Kimberley murdered it, undoing Rachel Steven's good work.

OF COURSE Anton gets THE Argentine Tango song of all Argentine Tango songs for his first competitive one.

If the D/O isn't Kellie vs Peter one of the other 5 fell over in their dance because Anita, Georgia, Helen, Jay and Katie have this set up for them this week...

yet again Katie has perfect music - but that on its own does not make a good dance feel it will be wasted again

hate Jay's tango music and the paso

love the Tony Succar version of I want you back which we use for salsa so holding out hope realise Kevin has not had much success with salsa in the past but Kellie does not have the bent knee problem that Frankie and Susannah had so could be ok

At this stage tecnique will play a big part so just cos Anita/ Kaite/Helen have good music dom't automatically think it will make a good dance

Awful Paso song for Georgia.

Hoping they'll make good out of it though, like with the tango.

As much as I agree about traditional songs, I think When Doves Cry could be amazing if Aliona makes good use of the accents in the music.

Georgia's on the other hand reminds me of Rachel Steven's paso which, much as I loved most of her dances, did look a bit like a toddler having a tantrum. I fear Georgia's could be the same.

Anton and Katie's is great and the rest are a bit meh. Kellie and Kevin's should offer wardrobe another opportunity to put Kellie in a horrible outfit .

On the contrary, I remember Matt/Nicole and Brendan/Karen Hardy did a great pro Paso to the Final Countdown in series 6- so Georgia will be close to the top again I suspect this week.

Yeah, couldn't see ghostbusters working at all, so theres hope.

I thought Kellie said on ITT tonight that they were doing the Jive! I really have to listen more carefully

I just don't like Final Countdown full stop, overblown echoey thing. Bwerrr!

That would be a bit awkward since they did it about three weeks ago already!

I actually all of them have good music this week that will suit their dance the only one im not sure about is Kellie's salsa to I Want You Back

Some good songs this week IMO except Team GG's (not a bad Paso track, just hate the song) and I have a feeling Peter's AS could end up being a bit bland. Looking forward to Anita's rumba, Georgia's Paso (despite the crappy song) and Helen VW (this could be fantastic).

Great song tho!

Yes it is but im just not sure its good for a salsa

I know! Shocking!

I love 'At Last' by Etta James, great song to dance to.

Libertango is the Argentine Tango of All Argentine Tango songs....Arghhhh... I am really rooting for Katie this week to deliver. Very pleased that they got this song. I need someone to deliver a good AT this year. Someone. Anyone.I I love that dance so much it's not even funny
Love Jay but I was disappointed with his AT .
