Recommended alternatives:-
“Up” (117 bpm) by The Saturdays
“The way you make me feel” (119 bpm) by Michael Jackson
“Heartbreaker” (101 bpm) by Dionne Warwick
Choreographers note:- When using the Gloria Estefan track the music appears slow - but the dance isn't, therefore the timing may take a little practice. This dance is ideally suited for those Beginners who have just moved up a level to Advanced Beginners. To give the dance a completely different feel, then go for the Michael Jackson or The Saturdays tracks. If using 'The Saturdays', there is a restart after count 8 on the 10th wall. Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'
Dance starts after the long intro (46 seconds) on the word ‘So open your eyes’. Weight on left.
If using The Saturdays or Michael Jackson music – start on the main vocals
