Choosing the songs for my dances (Add videos) ++++

 So to choose songs for my dances I want songs that I know well enough to the point where I can pick out beats quite easily for the dance. I decided to make a list for each of the styles of dance with the techniques that I merged together. I merged these together by the style and what it usually matches with in techniques.

How I chose the final song is that I put all the songs on for each style of dance, then freestyle to each one to see which song I felt I could create a dance for the most easily.  

Commercial- Energy based:

For this dance I wanted a high energy song, with some easy beats to follow. 

  • I like it- Cardi B
  • Sorry not sorry- Demi Lavato
  • That's a no no- Itzy
  • Side to side- Ariana Grande
  • Tap in- Saweetie
  • Boss bitch- Doja cat
  • Level up- Ciara
  • Shut up and dance- Jason Derulo

Hiphop/Commercial- Speeds:

I wanted a song with a specific style to it, as well as some hard beats where I can play around with the tempo.
  • 16 shots- Stefflon Don
  • Take you dancing- Jason Derulo
  • Starboy- The weekend
  • Singing in the mirror- Becky G
  • Get your freak on- Missy Elliot
  • Solo- Demi Lavato
  • 7/11- Beyonce
Here's the video of freestyle:

Contemporary- Floorwork- Hard/Soft:

I want a song that is almost eerie sounding as this allows for the hard/soft style to be achieved quite easily. But I also want a song that has slow soft parts that allows for the more contemporary aspect as well as the floorwork.
  • Smile- Maisie Peters
  • Gangsta- Kehlani
  • You don't own me- Grace
  • Toxic- 2WEI
  • Goodbye- Taemin
Here's the video of freestyle:

Hiphop- Groove

Not too much going on within the song, kinda lazy sounding. But with some beats that I can hit to make it show more of a hiphop style.
  • Shape of you- Ed Sheehan
  • Sicko mode- Travis Scott
  • Church- T.Pain
  • The way I are- Timberland
  • No Diggity- Backstreet boys
  • Love Sex Magic- Ciara
  • 4 Minutes- Madonna
  • 24K Magic- Bruno Mars
  • Pop Style- Drake
  • Wow- Post Malone
