#strictlyeurovision part 2

In the lull between Strictly Come Dancing ending and Eurovision getting into gear I merge the two!

Over the past few weeks I have been carefully pairing up Strictly dance styles and Eurovision songs. I suggest a number of potential choices for all of the dances but select my favourite - the one I would probably like to dance the most - to play on the show. There are some quite obvious choices, some less so!

If you are a newbie to Eurovision there will be some songs you know but quite a few you won't, so see this as an entry level gateway to the world of Eurovision. If you *are* in the Eurovision fandom you may find some of my idea a little bit leftfield -which I am kind of known for - but I also try my very best to dis-spell my moniker as 'the one who hates Denmark' !!!

In this podcast we look at the following dance styles: Charleston, Samba, Salsa, Tango, Jive, Waltz and, last but not least, the Showdance !

If you have enjoyed the podcasts, please get in touch and/or share my stuff  :)

In this podcast we look at the following dance styles: Viennese Waltz, American Smooth, Cha Cha Cha, Foxtrot, Rumba, Argentine Tango, Quick Step and Paso Doble.

I shall be recording part 2 in the next couple of days so if you have any mini reviews or opinions of the pod then get them in soon so I can read some out ! The second podcast should be up around New Year's Eve :)
