So, the list is out, what does everyone think?
I really like Anton and Jan's choice of music (When you're smiling). It suits the quickstep.

Saturday's music
I really like Anton & Jan's choice too! But perhaps I'm a little biased! haha! I really like "You give me something" so I'm hoping Ian & Mica will be able to do somethign spectacular to keep me liking that song! I really don't want to end up associating it with a flat rumba!
Georgina & James "Let's get it on" - maybe that should be simply Let's get on...

The Quickstep choices could all be pretty good, looking forward to seeing Jan and Anton and (I don't know why) Carol and Matthew - not sure about the Rumba tunes though!
LOL!
Claire and Brendan dancing to Show me Heaven is going to be really good or massively cringeworthy, I guess it depends on the routine. I'm not keen on either, my bias is clouding my judgement, I wonder if there'll be any writhing ?!?!

I'm pleasently surprised by Carol and Matt's choice - certainly not an obvious one but I think it could work well.
I'm not liking the cheese factor of Show Me Heaven so much - I've never been a big fan of the rhumba anyway and I don't think this is going to change my mind much.

I hope its really good, with plenty of writhing!
I wasn't a big fan of Brendan last year but I saw a little of LI and changed my mind about him. Plus I think he got lumbered with one of the worst dancers last year.

Does anyone agree that some of the choices dont fit the dances
Yikes 
'Don't Get Me Wrong' as a quickstep?! Oh my goodness this is either going to be inspired or sooo wrong!
Swing/easy listening is always a good choice for Quickstep and 'I Got Rhythm' and 'When You're Smiling' I think will do fine.
I can see where '9 to 5' wants to go, but it's not for me. Only consolation will be seeing Mathew get to have a go around the floor!
Eagerly anticipating Claire and Brendans Rumba to 'Show Me Heaven' and I am choreographing it already in my head!!

Totally agree! Those are both quickstep songs. 'Dont get me wrong'could be, like you say, a real surprise for us -one way or the other!

I must say so far, after 2 shows, I'm enjoying the music choices much more than last series, when there were some crashingly awful and *wrong* choices all the way through that drove me mad.
I thought everything worked okay on Sat night's show.
Is it just me, or have we not seen a glimpse of the Band or Singers so far this series?
Didn't they used to be introduced at the start of every show in the past?

You're right, the bank used to get introduced each week. But so far not a mention. I can feel a huffy walk-out coming on...
I got a surprise. 9 to 5 wasn't so bad as a Quickstep, but I still didn't rate Don't Get Me Wrong.
Everything else was all good, especially the choice for the pro Jive.
