Dancing with the Stars Music – Maxwell and Debi Nova

I think I shed a tear tonight when the #SAVEKate campaign failed. I know that Courtney and Heidi are likely rejoicing, but the more venom people spewed at Kate the more I liked her. Plus, she looked great on Dancing with the Stars. I totally dig the long hair. Anyway, enough about Kate. This post is about the Dancing with the Stars music.

Here’s the music performed on Dancing with the Stars by the 2 special guest performers:
Maxwell performed “Fistful of Tears” Maxwell - BLACKsummers'night (Deluxe Version) - Fistful of Tears with Tyne Stecklin & Teddy Forance dancing to a piece choreographed by Lacey.
Debi Nova performed “Drummer Boy” Debi Nova - Drummer Boy - Single - Drummer Boy with Dmitry Chaplin, Tony Dovolani, Derek Hough and Damian Whitewood dancing. Here’s the music video for it on Drummer Boy

I won’t try to list all of the songs that were used for the “Iconic Movies” performances with Debbie Allen. Feel free to list them in the comments. Thanks to Courtney for listing the music used for the “Iconic Movies” performance with Debbie Allen:
“Puttin’ on the Ritz” Fred Astaire - The Irving Berlin Songbook - Puttin' On The Ritz by Irving Berlin (from the Fred Astaire movie “Blue Skies”)

“You Should Be Dancing” The Gee Bees - Tribute to the Bee Gees - You Should Be Dancing by The Bee Gees (from “Saturday Night Fever”)

“Soul Bossa Nova” Quincy Jones and his Orchestra - Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (Music from the Motion Picture) - Soul Bossa Nova (Dim's Space-A-Nova) by Quincy Jones (from “Austin Powers”)

“Fame” Naturi Naughton - Fame (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) - Fame by Naturi Naughton (cover of the original Irene Cara song, from the 2009 movie “Fame”)

As always, you can find the full list of Dancing with the Stars music and watch for some cool posts coming soon that talk about the music reuse on Dancing with the Stars among other fun things.

SPOILERS!!! DWTS Season 10, Week 5 – The Scorecard

And Courtney is currently waltzing around her living room in joy. šŸ™‚ That’s right, Kate had to hit the trail tonight.

Well, I would say that I was freaking ECSTATIC to be wrong – and part of me is – but part of me is also incredibly bummed that Pam was in an actual “bottom two” again. That’s just so wrong! That said, looking back at my numbers post, it’s not really that hard for Niecy to get more votes that her. Remember, Niecy only had to get about 17,400 more votes per 1 million votes cast. Sounds like a lot, but it’s really not. I also realize that I unintentionally left Pam out of my votes discussion.

One thing about the results show, other than my love for Adam Corrolla – Next time you’re going to have four hot male pros dancing get rid of that chick in the middle. She was just in the way. šŸ™‚

The Scorecard:
Heidi – called it Niecy solid with no backup plan. Therefore, I fail. But I’m so not upset about that. šŸ™‚

Courtney – Also called it Niecy solid and Kate safe. I can’t imagine she’s upset to be wrong either. She’ll let us know when she stops waltzing.

Summary:
Heidi: I think what I forgot to take into account was Niecy’s previous status as a bottom two person – it caused every other fan group to rally, why not Niecy’s? As a result of that rally, it came back round to Pamela. But now, Kate is gone – so who’s it going to be?? I think this week the dance really will be critical, more than ever. It sounds like we have either Samba (Nicole, Erin) or Argentine Tango (Niecy?) in addition to a Swing Marathon. Swing? Why swing? Which pro excels in that? None that I know of, that are currently on the show.

Courtney, what say you??

Courtney: I have never been so happy to be so wrong about who was going home šŸ˜€ No more crying, needy lead-ins…no more low-energy performances…and no more frustrations taken out on Tony! Watching DWTS will be a much happier experience for me now šŸ™‚ I have to wonder if George Lopez’s stupid “Keep Kate” campaign actually did more harm than good – voting for Kate was the cool, nonconformist thing to do, until he took it to the mainstream. Either that, or Kate went from being the “trainwreck that was fun to watch” to just being whiny & boring, and people stopped voting. Or maybe it was the fact that she was actually improving a tiny bit. Whatever it is, I’m glad Tony is free, and we can hopefully avoid the “Kate-saturation” of the media week after week.

But echoing Heidi’s sentiments – it seriously scared the crap outta me that Pam was in the bottom 2 again. I’m hoping it was just the fact that people just assumed she was safe and didn’t vote, rather than forgetting about her altogether or deliberately not voting for her. I’m crossing my fingers that she & Damian’s Argentine tango next week is dynamite, and that her fans rally to pull her outta the bottom 2. Hopefully they can break out of that dreaded “middle of the pack” position they fell into this week, and overtake Jake & Erin.

I happily admit that I underestimated Niecy’s appeal…guess her jiggly parts are paying the dividends, after all šŸ˜‰

DWTS Season 10, Week 5 – ABC Local Affiliate on the Performance Show

More and more Erin just sounds catty. I’m not digging it. And Kate is pissed off? Please. The truth is often painful. Jake – I don’t EVER want to hear the words “tea bag” come out of your mouth ever again. šŸ™‚ Everyone jumped Nicole’s case last week – anyone gonna have a go at the others for all the bitching and moaning in this video? šŸ™‚ Read more..

DWTS Season 10, Week 5 – Dancing by the Numbers

The judges are giving me whiplash. Itā€™s like they canā€™t make up their minds if they want to be hard asses or if they just want to try for rational. Itā€™s truly bizarre. You want examples? Iā€™ll give you examples; Len gives Erin and Maks a verbal pass for not only using a prop, but Maks slowing the tempo of a JIVE for the first however many bars AND using that menu to an extreme. Len then proceeds to rip Damian a new one for having Pam sit at the table for too long. Hey, I agree Len ā€“ Damian shouldnā€™t have done that. But how about, instead of seeming to give Maks a pass then dinging them with a low score so theyā€™re confused, you tell them that they, like Damian (and Derek) broke the rules. Derek broke hold in a Quickstep and got hosed for it, Maks slows the tempo and used a menu and still gets a 7 but with no useful critique, and Damian gets a tongue lashing for using a table and chairs. Dude, your enforcement of your rules and ā€œcommandmentsā€ seems pretty freakinā€™ random to me. At the end of the day, any pro who says, ā€œya know what? We knew we would get dinged, but we went for the audienceā€ has my complete sympathy this season. But no faux confusion (Dmitry), own it.

Dang, sometimes I can nail it. I so totally called ā€œI Donā€™t Want to Miss a Thingā€ for Evan and Annaā€™s Rumba. It took me a bit to remember what the movie was that immediately sprang to mind when I heard ā€œromantic song in an action movieā€ ā€“ but that is like the ultimate in bizarre theme song for a movie. Anywayā€¦

The MATH.

Here are the Judges Scores:
Dancer/Score
Nicole/29
Evan/27
Jake/23
Erin/22
Pam/21
Chad/18
Niecy/18
Kate/15
Total Judges Points Awarded = 173

Three point spread between Niecy and Kate? I donā€™t think thatā€™s enough to save Niecy. I hope and pray Iā€™m wrong, because Kate? Was a total beyotch last night and shamelessly brought her kids into it (moreso than before). Poor Tony. Kate was winning me over, slowly, but that was too much last night. And do I have my numbers right? Jake is now in third place? How the hell did that happen?

Dividing the individual scores by the total points awarded gives you the following percentages:

Dancer/Percentage of Total
Nicole/16.76
Evan/15.61
Jake/13.29
Erin/12.72
Pam/12.14
Chad/10.4
Niecy/10.4
Kate/8.67

Nicole and Evan score higher, and Kate and a couple other stay the same, plus there are fewer dancers ā€“ the end result is larger percentage spreads between the top and bottom and even between the bottom and the middle. Will it be enough? I hope so, but Iā€™m not confident.

Dancer/Votes
Evanā€“ Still the ringer of the season based on fanbase and ability, although I think Nicole might start catching him in votes. Very good Rumba, although his hips werenā€™t all that. Evan is a dichotomy ā€“ very bland seeming during the show, but so cute during the rehearsal packages, and then not that exciting during his dances. Heā€™s a good dancer, for sure, but heā€™s not excited me thus far. Nice chest, though, when he was with Anna in the red room pre-dance. And his twitter activity is annoying the living shit out of me.

Nicole ā€“ vastly improved from last week, for sure, although I thought that move at the end was kinda strange. Props to Derek for coming up with an actual, flashy Tango to Pretty Woman. I had my doubts. Iā€™m so ashamed. šŸ™‚ I am crazy, but the thing that I still find fascinating about these two is how in sync they are, even when not dancing. That bit when Carrie Ann said they were ā€œSuperstaaaaarsā€ and they both immediately mimic her, in sync? Very telling, IMO. These two are pretty tight ā€“ although I donā€™t think she needs to hit him quite so hard. šŸ™‚ As tempting as that may be at times. Even I am tempted to give him a good smack at times – but don’t bruise the merchandise.

I have no clue how the votes are stacking up for the remaining contestants. I donā€™t even know if I can make a good guess. I think that Evan and Nicole are up there, possibly followed closely by Chad due to his football player status. Below is my pseudo attempt to put them in order.

Chad ā€“ Backsliding this week, I think. Iā€™m not sure what the problem is here. I donā€™t even know what to say about this dance. I think I was distracted by the whole ā€œJungle Bookā€ deal. And I had a headache, so I didnā€™t take notes. Calling him safe, either way.

Erin ā€“ Iā€™m with Courtney 100 percent on Erin. What started off as charming and fun, is now becoming quite tiresome. Iā€™m justā€¦over it. Just dance, would ya? That said, I personally loved Maksā€™ temper tantrum, including the jumping. I wonā€™t say more and save it for the ā€œCheesiestā€ awards. I have a huge soft spot for Maks, I must confess.

Jake ā€“ Dude, why did you have to go the tighty whities route? Why? And if youā€™re going to do that, lose the freaking band aid on the knee. Other than groaning loudly at the white shirt and lack of pants, I got nothing. He did a passable ChaCha, but he looked better in rehearsal footage Iā€™ve seen.

Kate ā€“ I think she also backslid like Chad, but I have to agree with John (via Twitter) that I have seen improvement. That said, sheā€™s still awful and far too awful to stay in the competition. But she will. :::sigh:::

Niecy ā€“ I think Niecy is on her way out, unfortunately. While I really like her personality, and sheā€™s no where near as bad a dancer as Kate, sheā€™s also not up to par with the rest of the pack. Not only that, but they gave her a crap dancing spot and sheā€™s surrounded by bigger things ā€“ no pun intended. Youā€™ve got Jake in his underwear, Erin fake fighting with Maks, Nicole and Evan killing their dancesā€¦and Kate. I don’t think The Insider and Entertainment Tonight pimpage is going to help.

A note about voting ā€“ online voting was seriously screwed up on the east coast last night. Most every Derek fan I see on Twitter was complaining about not being able to on-line vote. Since the issues occurred BEFORE you even got to the page to vote (i.e. it wouldnā€™t let you log in or took forever and got hung up), Iā€™m sure it wasnā€™t just aimed at Derek fans. They just happen to be the ones who I see most on twitter after the show. I believe the reason for this was seriously heavy traffic ā€“ lots and lots of people voting. I believe it was traffic because about an hour after the show was over, it started to improve. This is my caveat ā€“ when you have LOTS of people voting, and lots of trouble voting, the results could be…interesting.

Okay, revisting the bottom four dancers in terms of judges scores, we have:

Pam/12.14
Chad/10.4
Niecy/10.4
Kate/8.67

I think this is actually pretty easy. Niecy and Chad are tied and I would bet that Chad is getting way more votes than anyone in the bottom four. So, call him safe. Kate is at the bottom and is 1.73% behind Niecy, which means that she has to get about 17,400 more votes than Niecy per 1 million votes cast to stay. Can she do it? I say yes, she can.

Are Kate and Niecy both getting more votes than Pam? Kate would have to get about 34,700 more votes per 1 million and Niecy would have to get about 17,400 per 1 million for them BOTH to pass Pam and have her be eliminated. Are both those things (and Chad getting a ton of votes) happening? This I find doubtful. Kate and Chad might get more, but not Niecy. I think Pam has won herself a bunch of new fans (like myself and Courtney) and along with that, a bunch of votes. I think sheā€™s safe.

Keeping in my mind the voting caveat aboveā€¦I think Niecy is going home and Iā€™m not happy about that. Now, off to watch Bergeronā€™s twitter for clues.
