Music, This dance can be danced to the Adele version of Skyfall, however the feel of this dance is based on the “pulse” synonymous in West Coast Swing and Noah’s acoustic version of Skyfall is swung in rhythm and is thus far more enjoyable to dance.
The music can be found on Youtube at, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJlyyqhs_3c, or by searching for “Skyfall Noah”.
If you have any trouble getting the song from you tube, email me and I will tell you exactly how to get it using YTD. nigel_mooney@me.com I hope you enjoy it!
