I think "Hey Mickey" will work fine for Claudia. For me the one with the short straw is Greg, not keen on the song and certainly not for a Quickstep.

It's not fair. Traditional music for their AT, and now this. They ought to be drawn to dance second, having been at the end last week.
Anyhow, talking of Bond, I would love to see the pros do a Blackpool Results Show samba to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3nBuwOPu8A I think it would be phenomenal!

Quickstep and Charleston music should be swapped around.

Apologies if this has been posted before, but this is the paso music with Trent dancing a paso (is it me or do they do a movement that looks like he is dragging her by the hair or am I misunderstanding? (He obviously isn't.) Because that is horrible - or it might be me seeing things
.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmuW-XpO2kM I think the song choices stink, particularly for Greg. And I bet the people with the right music will also get the best staging. But the show is what it is, I should be used to it. No point expecting it to be fair suddenly. I suppose we are going to see a real battle for top, aren't we, between Danny and Louise, both on the big stage with perfect music for them. It's probably a finale preview. Plus no question that it's a huge advantage to have stage experience to do Blackpool, over sports, politics or presenting, no question. So we might at last see who of Danny and Louise is going to win, or just possibly who might stake their claim to be the third person in the final. |

To be honest, I'm not seeing how the choice of music for Louise's paso could be considered either perfect or evidence of favouritism.
This pseudo-classical track is far from traditional and I admit to being unfamiliar with it until yesterday. There are other far more well known and popular music choices for the dances this week which seem to me more audience friendly. I saw it mentioned that Emma Bunton danced to it and when I looked her dance up on YouTube, I was underwhelmed by the music. Yes, Louise got traditional music for her AT but her foxtrot song was awful, having previously been used on Strictly for a Cha Cha and her Charleston music didn't work for me either. Danny had great music for his quickstep and a more traditional sound for his paso; Robert Rinder had songs which suited his quickstep and foxtrot the past couple of weekends. As for Ed, apart from his week one waltz, he has been given dances, themes and music where he could bring a fun or showy element and this has made it much easier for him to do an entertaining performance and pick up votes. All couples get what they are given and have to work with it and I feel that everyone has had some difficult choices and some good choices. |

Thanks for that link to the Aussie DWTS. I agree that the choreography was awful. He pulls her by the hair and then strips her, just ugh! Nonetheless I'm always glad to see Trent. I hate this song Explosive. Not looking forward to a frenzied paso given the crap song.

I'm not Kevin's biggest fan, but to be fair to him, if anyone can make this work for a paso in Blackpool, he can. I don't think he's ever done a bad Blackpool routine. I remember last year everyone was worried about 9 to 5 for Kellie and then it was a massive step forward for her. He does get 'putting on a show'.

Two threads is confusing. Anyway anyone listen to the Bond track and determine it's suitability for a paso? I will give it a listen when I get home.
I and another FM both opened two music threads and mine was immediately closed.

No obviously poor song choices are jumping out at me this week everyone seems to have suitable music for the dances they got and stand half a good chance if they pull it off on the night

Well everyone on here's been predicting this with absolute certainty every week since Hallowe'en, so I guess it has to finally happen some time...

cannot believe how Louise and Kevin get it in the neck for getting favoured with the music choices and their Paso music is awful all I can see when I hear it is the dreadful paso of Emma Bunton. Funny how the recent music and costume choices for Rinder are ignored, and besides last weeks choice Danny and Oti have had great music and back to a classic charleston this week (puttin on the Ritz was written as one not a quickstep)

Hopefully though(if she stays in) they let her grow up for the last few weeks and give her suitable music for each dance. |

Claudia and AJ will be dancing the Jive to ‘Hey Mickey’ by Toni Basil
Danny and Oti will be dancing the Charleston to ‘Puttin’ On The Ritz’ by Gregory Porter Ed and Katya will be dancing the Jive to 'Great Balls of Fire’ by Jerry Lee Lewis Greg and Natalie will be dancing the Quickstep to ‘Hand Jive’ by Sha Na Na Judge Rinder and Oksana will be dancing the Salsa to ‘Spice Up Your Life’ by Spice Girls Louise and Kevin will be dancing the Paso Doble to ‘Explosive’ by Bond Ore and Joanne will be dancing the Viennese Waltz to ‘That’s Life’ by Frank Sinatra Can't see Rinder going with that, or indeed Balls. Danny and Ore seem to be getting the best deal - vote friendly dances to vote friendly music. Explosive seems to have no lyrics or story? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiaOFOMPOBc |
