Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree - Bellamy Brothers
The song “Tropical Christmas” has an easy lazy pace to beat the heat in tropical climes and makes this dance suitable for Absolute Beginners. NO TAGS OR RESTARTS!
For the more experienced Beginner and/or those who prefer a faster pace, “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree” by The Bellamy Brothers is an ideal alternative music choice.
Other alternative Christmas music options: Feliz Navidad by Boney M; Rudolph The Rednosed Reindeer by various artists – the choice is yours – have fun, enjoy!
