I have heard that Mark really likes the music he is dancing to for the salsa, does anyone know what it is ?

Parranetly, it's "Soul Limbo", better known as the music for Test Match Special.

edit:

....... and apparently just mentioning Mark salsa-ing inhibits my ability to spell or type. Sorry.

Nope sorry, doesn't have a clue what the choice of music is. I for one can't wait to find out though.

It's the theme from the BBC cricket coverage, if anyone can remember that far back. I hate it!!

That's what the people on this forum think,...but we haven't heard anything about their choice yet. And I sure hope it's not. It needs proper salsa music.

Ahh, oh right, I thought someone *knew*

If the music is bad, I fully intend to watch with the sound turned off and enjoy it anyway

Thank goodness someone else hates it - everyone is raving about it in the Mark and Karen thread (except me!).

I was really hoping for a sexy salsa and that music makes me think of Richie Benaud, Tony Lewis and Geoffrey Boycott!!

I somehow doubt very much that it is that. We really don't know, we just assume that the music of their choice has something to do with cricket. There might be more choices of music which are close to Mark's heart.

Not a clue, but Mark loves it!

I don't know where the Soul Limbo rumours came from, but I do like that tune - whether or not for a salsa I don't know, but I am making like Bon Jovi, and Keeping the faith!!

Geoffrey Boycott and my Dad coming home when I was trying to watch Grange Hill and wanting to watch cricket on BBC2. aargh.

I am also laughing to myself about how successful any thread is with the word "Mark" in the title, I almost feel pounced on, that guy is so popular !

You mean there's a hope that it might not be that dreadful tune?

Off topic completely, but how rubbish is the BBC official SCD website? They should have information like this available on there. But they can't even manage to get pictures from all the shows on there yet.

LOL the forum is rocking whenever Mark is mentioned in a thread, on ITT, or SCD.

True, the pictures from Show ONE still aren't on the site.

Just found the original post - maryjay said "I think the music he is dancing to will be Soul Limbo by Booker T and the MGs"

I think we all just took it as gospel and ran with it LOL.

Now I really want to know what they're dancing to!

I'm neither here nor there with that tune - never heard it in full before today (or indeed, even knew that it had a name beyond "test match special" theme) I have no idea whether it would be good for salsa or not, either. Just going to have to trust Karen!

Hehehehe, that makes me feel like starting a topic just called "Mark" but with nothing relevant in the body of the message just to see how many views it gets LOL

But I won't....

Same here! Another thing,..I SO do NOT like the Beatles. I did love the J-Lo song "Let's get Loud". Every time I hear that song, I think about a certain cha cha routine. LOL

Eleanor Rigby IMO didn't have the passion and drama needed for the tango.

The dance was fabulous though.
