Popular songs recommended for performance dances (71–80)
Baby youyuka
High-tempo songs tend to make the dance moves feel hectic, don’t they? Because of that, many people might feel the bar is a bit high.
On the other hand, slow songs can sometimes lack excitement.
That’s why I recommend Yuka’s “Baby you.” It’s a mid-tempo love song with cute choreography that focuses on hand and finger movements.
The overall vibe is relaxed, so feel free to choose it if that suits your taste.
