MID-POLL REPORT IS UP
My goodness, for this week's weekend poll, the first thought was sexiest countries to live in - way too many! Then sexiest cars - that was worse! Finally - most enjoyable dance styles but with only ten choices, it was near impossible. I've done what I can, long-suffering reader and here they are for your delectation:
1. Salsa
2. Ballroom
3. Lambada
4. Ska
5. Afro-American, hip hop, rap
6. Modern dance troupe
7. Ballet
8. Ice dance
9. Jive, rock 'n roll
10. Ritzy,tap, Michael Jackson
I know that Riverdance and various ethnic styles didn't get in to the ten and maybe that can be at a later date. Anyway - choose which three you like best and vote in the right sidebar if you would ...

I would put the Lambada in front of Salsa, I do agree Your top 3.
ReplyDeleteBut what about American smooth, you left that out, or is that under ballroom somehow? How about Latin?
And are we talking sexy watching them or sexy doing them? Maybe the order would be different ^_^
I put the salsa to take care of the Latin, American smooth I don't know. Being out of this field but enjoying it, the pros need to put me straight on terminology and styles.
ReplyDeleteFor example, Hammer and Michael Jackson might be too close.
In the end, there were only ten slots available.
I dropped the word sexy this week and you can interpret it your own way. It might be which style floats your boat or it might be the performers. I'm partial to the Russian girl in the ice dance but I know her to be a real b---h [I have heaps of photos of her]and that's why Platov left her and then returned later.
Astaire and Jackson are [were] top dancers. I went to see Todes in Russia and they were amazing.
American Smooth is is like Ballroom meets Fred Astair & Ginger Rogers. Elegant, lovely and romantic.
ReplyDeleteOh, this will be good. back after work. :)
ReplyDeleteI'll look for it, Moggs. HGF - do please.
ReplyDeleteI note that you seem to have omitted the ever-popular dance from the frozen north of Scandinavia - Lap
ReplyDeleteYou forgot the all time number one. The Dad-dance-like-dork Dance
ReplyDeleteWhere are my Strathspeys and Reels?
ReplyDeletemy what an energetic Salsa; I can't say I've ever danced Salsa that way. (Swing, maybe,in the younger years) (and you've left out the Tango... :/ ;)
ReplyDeleteI've voted, 4th would have been the ice dancing, even with the attitude. :)
ReplyDeleteWhy no jiving?

Jive's now in; Tango, I suppose, is one part of ballroom. Moggs, can you give us a youtube link for American Smooth?The Dad-dance-like-dork Dance is covered by the 'lads dancing' in ska.
ReplyDeleteYes, but sometimes the Tango seems an entity unto itself. ;)
ReplyDeletehad to laugh at the ska comment! :)
Ha ha. OK, HGF - I'll go over and look at tango in youtube. I have danced it, it's deliciously close but when I looked at the Argentine Tango just now, it looked a bit tricky.
ReplyDeleteAll in the practice I suppose.
alas, I'm only a novice and know just a bit of the Tango. I've only danced it once with a very experienced dancer, if it wasn't for him I would have been all 'tangoed/tangled' up. ;)
ReplyDeleteMy grand was too shy and reserved to teach me; but it's on the list to do (lessons)along with my eldest once my ankle is stronger. :) Him inside only waltzes on occasion, and maybe a two-step. Really, you men should relax about the dancing...(real men do dance!) ;D
