I heard it through the grapevine is a great song....but for an Argentine tango? Hardly dramatic enough or staccato in the music
I am perplexed. Actually no, I'm flabbergasted. I was really looking forward to their Argentine Tango. It seems a bizarre song
AFAIK it's the producers that pick the songs.0 -

Haven't posted in nearly two weeks, as I've been busier than usual.
However, I can only agree with those who have said that there seems to be something missing from Strictly this year - even I haven't been as excited about the show as in previous years. I wonder, though, how much of this is down to Will's departure...?
But it seems that many other viewers are as excited as ever - the live shows are still attracting around 11 million all told, and the results shows around 10 million. And, of course, it's still crushing XF despite the best efforts of Dermot and Rylan.
And I'm still excited enough to keep looking at the bookies' markets...
Paddy Power: Danny 11/10, Louise 5/2, Ore 5/1, Claudia 8/1, Greg 14/1, Rinder 22/1, Ed 33/1, Daisy 66/1
Ladbrokes: Danny 11/8, Louise 5/2, Ore 5/1, Claudia 8/1, Greg 16/1, Rinder 16/1, Ed 40/1, Daisy 40/1
William Hill: Danny 5/4, Louise 11/4, Ore 4/1, Claudia 8/1, Greg 10/1, Rinder 20/1, Ed 33/1, Daisy 50/1
Coral: Danny 5/4, Louise 5/2, Ore 9/2, Claudia 8/1, Greg 14/1, Rinder 20/1, Ed 33/1, Daisy 66/1
No surprise that Louise has moved above Ore into second, following her 39 and his DO adventure last week. He's still far from being an outsider, however - unlike Daisy.
I can't say I'm too surprised about Ed, either. Just like Sergeant and Widders, he's consistently getting the lowest score - five weeks out of seven thus far, and only one point more than Anastacia in the other two weeks - yet the public like him enough to keep him out of the DO. He probably will go to Blackpool - but if he gets any further, is it possible that he will do what Sergeant did and decide, "This is becoming a joke too far"? 0 -

Eh... She did manage to get to the final of Series 8, at the age of 61, and became by far the oldest contestant to ever make it to the final. Her and James' average score for 14 dances was 35. She managed to get three perfect scores - Viennese Waltz, Quickstep, and then Viennese Waltz again in the final). Not too many couples have managed to get a 40 awarded that many times!!
That's pretty great in my book!

In relation to the Argentine tango and Danny & Oti having to dance it using quite a strange choice of song...
40 has been awarded for an Argentine tango three times. On each of those occasions, the music used was the typical type that you would expect.
It's just annoying Danny & Oti won't be dancing to a typical song used for the Argentine Tango. The music helps create the mood and the atmosphere. Their performance could be brilliant, but it probably won't live long in my memory unlike the dances shown below. And that will be because of the song.
Jason Donovan & Kristina Rihanoff - Series 9 Week 11: Semi-Final
Harry Judd & Aliona Vilani - Series 9 Week 12: Final
Simon Webbe & Kristina Rihanoff - Series 12 Week 13: Final

True but there was nothing exciting about her dancing. That's my opinion. 0 -
