What are the most common first dance songs in a wedding?
Couples who hire me as a wedding DJ get to pick their own first dance, but I have a pretty long list of ideas they can use for inspiration if they can’t think of their own.Some of the more popular songs:Ed Sheeran / Thinking Out LoudEd Sheeran / Perfect (or one of the variants, such as “Perfect Duet” with Beyonce or “Perfect Symphony” with Andrea Bocelli)John Legend / All of MeChristina Perri / A Thousand YearsIngrid Michaelson / I Can’t Help Falling in LoveSavage Garden / I Knew I Loved YouThere’s tons more… if you go to my DJ Blog you can see what each of my couples chose for their first dance (and their picks for the other key moments of their receptions).
Which song would be the best for the first dance of a wedding?
when it comes to wedding music to dance to, the reason why most first dances between the newly married couple are normally boring and uncomfortable to watch is that most couples do not may any attention to music principals when they choose their first dance music. they pick songs based on their emotional attachment to them, and that is okay, but it does not make for a lovely first dance for those who have to watch it. what you should consider is the timing of the song. yes, you want a song by an artist you both love and a song which speaks to your relationship and reflects it in the lyrics, but you also need a song which is written in a timing which can be danced to. all of the songs you listed are written in 4/4 timing which is unconducive to dancing and is actually awkward to dance to.....except for taylor swifts "crazier". that one is written in 6/8 timing which is a faster version of 3/4 time which is perfect for dancing because it is a waltz tempo. so i would choose "crazier" out of the songs you have listed here. that way you will feel the beat and will be able to move better to it and those who watch you will find it less painful. also, do yourselves and your guests a favor and go take one or two dance lessons so you can give them something to look at other than just shuffling around in a circle. they only cost about 30 buck per lesson.
What are some good songs to have for the first dance at your wedding?
There are a few things to consider when it comes to your first dance1. Is there a song that means a lot to you?Did you become an item while slow dancing to oldies?Did you sing a song to your spouse-to-be when you proposed?Are you both big fans of show tunes?If there is a song that is absolutely critical to your wedding, use it. If there isn't, don't sweat it. 2. Is looking good while you are dancing important to you?- ideally, you'd want:SPECIAL SONG + WEDDING DANCE = match made in heavenSometimes, unfortunately, the song you pick ahead of time can limit your dancing options. There are some songs that correspond with dances that you should honestly avoid. DANCES TO exploreFoxtrot: you may not recognize the dance (in comparison to swing or salsa), but just about every classic, jazzy, romantic, Sinatra-Buble-Ella song out there is a Foxtrotbonus points: It's easy to learn and incredibly practicalRumba: this is the upgrade to the away side to side dance you may have used to survive high school. This dance is the foundation to all future latin dances. Bonus points: slow, easy, and romanticSwing: this is upbeat, has plenty of music options, and, depending on the curriculum, you can survive most uptempo music on the dance floor for years to come. Bonus points: this converts easily to other popular dances like cha-cha and salsa. Dances to avoidViennese Waltz: this dance is a faster version of a standard waltz (essentially anything by Strauss). There are some great songs that are popular that, unfortunately, are V.Waltzes (example: "1000 years", "say something")Medleys: With a longer timeframe, you can get just about anything accomplished on the dance floor, but if you are in a crunch for time - avoid anything involving more than one song. There's absolutely nothing wrong with a complex, high production value routine... But the best routines are the ones where you look calm, comfortable, and natural.

Fast upbeat dance songs for pointe?
I have a ballet class dancing to What you waiting for by Gwen Stefani this year. Its such a cool song. It's got a great beat and a pretty good message. A few not so nice words. But you can edit that or cut that out. It is definitely not a traditional pointe song. Very upbeat and fun. You should check it out. A few years ago our pointe class danced to Umbrella by Rihanna too. That was cool. They wore all black leotards and tutus and had black umbrellas. Super fun dance. And last year they danced to The way you make me feel by Michael Jackson. You should just think of some older songs that are cool and do them, or see if there are remakes of old songs. That could be cool and there would be a new take on them. Just have fun with it. Start thinking outside the box and listen to all types of music. Good luck! Happy Dancing! :)

Dark modern dance solo song?
So, I'm normally a character dancer. I hate it, I'm bored with it, I want *out* of my comfort zone. So, I'm thinking something kinda dark but it cannot have bad words, or suggestive themes (like the one I wanted...) Build God Then We'll Talk by Panic! At The Disco seemed perfect. But the whole second verse and bridge are really sketchy lyrics. Its that beat I want though, dark, powerful, and slightly changing at times. (: I know it's a tall order, but I would love some songs to test out! Please and thank you!
