Your Dancing Music Wish List For For DWTS Season 18, Let’s See It?

Hey Everyone! What song selections would you like to see the pros or the couples dance to on the new season of Dancing With The Stars? If interested, post all of your ideas and music wish lists in comments! You never know, they might be helpful or inspirational to the Pros or the new Band for the new season?

Ok, here are a few of our music ideas and wishes….

Vogue:
The Monster – Eminem ft. Rihanna
Show me – Kid Ink ft. Chris Brown
I’m A Freak – Enrique Iglesias
Shine My Shoes – Robbie Williams
You Rock My World – Michael Jackson
Not A Bad Thing – Justin Timberlake
Anything by The Gotan Project (for Latin dances)
Don’t Tell Me – Madonna

John:
Let It Go – Idina Menzel (from the movie “Frozen”)

Lori:
Happy – Pharrell Williams
Animals – Martin Garrix
Drink a Beer – Luke Bryan

Courtney:

“Gypsy” by Lady Gaga (would be a fantastic freestyle or contemporary song)
“Love Me Again” by John Newman (great for a cha-cha)
“Make Me Lose Control” by Eric Carmen (an oldie but a goodie – would be great for a rumba if they ever resurrect 80s week!)
“I Wish” by Cher Lloyd feat. T.I. (one of my guilty pleasures – might be fun as a samba)
“Feel Good” by Robin Thicke (another good cha-cha)
“Sunglasses at Night” by Corey Hart (I’ve wanted to see it used for a paso doble for 3 years now!)

I think What Now by Rihanna would fit a Viennese Waltz, a Cha-Cha-Cha to Blow by Beyoncé and an Argentine Tango or Contemporary to Dark Horse by Katy Perry.

“Aqui Estoy Yo” by Luis Fonsi
“Poison & Wine” or “Girl with the Red Balloon” by the Civil Wars
“Morning has Broken” by Cat Stevens

Watch Me Move – Fefe Dobson (they used this song in a troupe dance a few years ago and I fell in love with it, I feel like it would make a fun Cha Cha!)

The Walker – Fitz & The Tantrums (this one would be sooo much fun!)

Classic – MKTO
Mmm Yeah – Austin Mahone
Talk Dirty – Jason Derulo
Happy – Pharrell Williams
I’m a Freak – Enrique
Lucky Strike – Maroon 5

Cinema- Benny Benassi covered by Skrillex; would be cool as an A. Tango

Say Something- A Great Big World; would be nice for a waltz, contemporary

Royals- Lorde; would be good for Jazz, Foxtrot, Charleston, Rumba, and maybe salsa

Days Go By- Dirty Vegas; any Latin dance or Tango

Talk Dirty- Jason Derulo; Cha-cha, Charleston, and maybe Samba

The Phoenix- Fall Out Boy; Paso Doble, Contemporary, and maybe quickstep

Would You…?- Touch & Go; Jive.

FEBRUARY SONG by Josh Groban (for a Viennese Waltz)
IO TI PENSO AMORE by David Garrett Feat. Nicole Scherzinger (for a Viennese Waltz)
SODA POP by Robbie Williams Feat. Michael Bublé (for a Quickstep)
INNUENDO by Queen (for Paso Doble)
# Aviva commented on March 2, 2014:
I would love to see some Motown songs done. And you know what would be awesome?

LIVE A CAPELLA PERFORMANCES. Like bring in Pentatonix and have the dances be coordinated with A Capella music. It would sort of defeat the purpose of the band, but it would be SO COOL.
# ch commented on March 2, 2014:
I always thought about these songs being played… Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus, Simply the Best by Tina Turner, Neon Lights by Demi Lovato, Starships by Nicki Minaj, Come on get Higher by Matt Nathenson, Just A Kiss by Lady Antebellum, Until You Come Back To Me ( That’s what I’m gonna do) by Aretha Franklin, Try by P! nk, and XO by Beyonce…

Ooohhh, how fun! So all the songs I’m listing are on my ipod and since I’m an uber-Derek fan, I picture him dancing/choreographing to these songs… LOL!

1.Heartless (Samantha Jade version) – This song is originally by Kanye West, but Samantha Jade actually SINGS it. I think she was on the Voice Australia… but this song would make a kick ass Argentine Tango! http://youtu.be/Ao6M6t1Rea8

2. Vivir Mi Vida (Marc Anthony) Salsa/Samba http://youtu.be/kMNPv_HXffQ

3. Say Something (Great Big World) Rumba http://youtu.be/VVgixOjGhVU

4. Gabriel’s Oboe (theme from The Mission) – Waltz/Viennese Waltz http://youtu.be/Ixby9BzJfEo I have envisioned Derek dancing to this so many times!!!

5. Talk Dirty (Jason Derulo) Cha Cha Cha …. This song is definitely a guilty pleasure for me bc I know ppl who hate it! LOL! http://youtu.be/RbtPXFlZlHg
# Iván commented on March 2, 2014:
Hello, everyone! Great to be back posting here :D!

– Yeeess to CC’s suggestion of Troublemaker as a samba. I performed it this week in my university’s musical show and I’m obsessed!

– I’d loove to see Just Give Me a Reason by Pink and the FUN guy as a rumba.

– Let it go by Idina Menzel as waltz.

– Story of my life by One Direction as a contemporary.

– Burn by Ellie Golding for a samba (I bet Mark will totally do this).

– Drunk in Love by Beyoncé either as a hiphop or a jazz.

That’s my list :D.

Greeting from México 😉
