Songs you'd love to dance to/see someone dance to!

Kate O · 2013-01-11T11:09:31+00:00

Following on from an older music suggestions thread, I thought I'd start this one. I don't have my own pole yet, I just take group classes. There are a few songs that I would love to dance to, but I can't make routines and stuff yet until I get my own pole. So I thought here, we could share songs that we think would be great to pole to, and if anyone has done a routine to them they could share it! Or someone might post a song that will inspire you to dance to it, and then you can share it with us :) I'll start, firstly, the song I mentioned on the other thread. It's a cover of a Beatles song by a band called Halestorm (love love love this band!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdbzE68Nyzg It's a bit long though, so suited to someone with good stamina (or good music editing skills!) Another one I would love to dance to one day is Second Chance by Shinedown http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-exALzL4dAg I realise this is a bit of a strange topic, but as I can't do my own routines yet I always find myself on YouTube searching " (insert song title/artist here) Pole Dance" :P So yeah, share your best songs to dance to or songs you would love to see someone else interpret, and if anyone has done a routine to any of the ones I've mentioned so far I would love to see!

@PrincessPeach I did Bloodstream for a show a few years ago, it was a great song to dance to ♡
PrincessPeach · 1/21/2013
I really wanted to use it for a show that's coming up. It's very long though and I just don't think I could manage the whole 5 and a bit mins. My studio is fitness based so I don't have the ability to fill some space with floor work and catch my breath! Even if I could, too much shimmy would probably be frowned apon.
phedre · 1/21/2013
What if your floor work were flexibility and strength moves?
PrincessPeach · 1/21/2013
That would work if my flexibility wasn't non existent. Definitely open to some suggestions though. Gives me something to work towards :-)
AliciaPolerina · 1/21/2013
Or if it was lyrical / dane based as opposed to sexy? Thats what I did, if I can find the video ill post it :)

Just incase no one mention any of these,,, Feelin' love by Paula Cole Is it Over? by Theivery Corporation My delicate dreams by Shana Halligan Gravity by John Mayer Come away with me Norah Jones Blood Stream By Stateless ...and the list goes on! :)

I would like to see Aletha rock out to AC /DC, YOU SHOOK ME ALL NIGHT LONG.
HotelChick · 7/21/2013
Purple Rain by Prince would be amazing performed by Jenyne Butterfly or Tracee Kafer.

Wow, my musical tastes don't really fit in here. I would LOVE to see somebody, ANYBODY, try to choreograph a routine on spin-mode to "Hallowed Be Thy Name" by Iron Maiden. It is my humble opinion that this would probably be the ultimate challenge for any dancer to pull off. It would be a masterpiece in my eyes. Anything by Acid Bath. Personal challenge would be "Jezebel". For fun, I would like to see some 1960's and '70's music being used. I don't often see any pole routines to it or, if I do, it's typically the same songs being used over and over again. Most ridiculous songs I'd like to make a routine to? Probably "I Remember that Freak" by Cypress Hill, "Cherry Pie" by ICP, "Balls Out" by The Bloodhound Gang, "Whole Lotta Rosie" by ACDC, or "Triad" by Jefferson Airplane. lol Fav popular pole song I'd like to try my hand at? "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails or "Glorybox" by Portishead.

Koidragon · 7/22/2013
I have to say my general music taste is for the more unusual - however, this song is full of such poetry, such beauty, that I would love to see a dance to it - perhaps by someone with a little more grace then me :) I don't know if power moves would work as well... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
Kate O · 7/22/2013
Did I just get rick-rolled in my own thread? :P
Koidragon · 7/22/2013
... I have been waiting the edge of my seat for that :D Sorry, I am quite immature at times teehee. OK, jokes aside, as it was a good question, which I couldn't resist taking advantage of. This is a song I plan to do a routine for, especially as I am a hip hop dancer. Otherside by Macklemore - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWhx-CtPmBU Or something like this, as it is one of the most emotive tracks ever in the history of ever The Kiss by Trevor Jones http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yB6S3c7f8XA BUT I secretly want to do a routine to this Guy on a Buffalo by The Possum Posse http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJ4T9CQA0UM
Hazi411 · 7/23/2013
Serzi, I am doing a routine to a 70s song for my debut public performance in October. Stressing out about my performance already ;-)
scorpiotrickster · 7/24/2013
I'm working on "My songs know what you did in the dark" by Fall Out Boy. I like really powerful songs since I tend to focus on tricks that rely on strength. After that, I'm thinking something by Breaking Benjamin, possibly "Had Enough"
Kate O · 7/26/2013
Ooh Breaking Benjamin are great for pole! I've already done Blow Me Away (the video is on here if you want to see) and I'd love to do Diary of Jane, Topless and maybe Breath :)
Kate O · 7/26/2013
And koidragon I have to admit I did enjoy the joke :P hehehe
CapFeb · 7/26/2013
I'm not doing Other side. But I will be doing a freestyle to Neon Cathedral
PoleRules · 7/27/2013
Blue Foundation-Eyes on Fire, Jenyne Butterfly danced to in the 2009 Worlds.
Vanessa Schmidt · 7/28/2013
Reach for me by the cast of Smash. It might just be my all time favorite song for pole/aerial. I would love to see a pole only routine! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xj8uBGYN6Tg is from the tv show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlthanIodGc is a silks/pole freestyle I found.
Legs4Days · 7/28/2013
My instructor played "Leather so soft" by Lil Wayne and Birdman. She did a really sultry routine to it so of course I put it on my playlist. It's a rap song but worked very well in class!
