Default Nicky's eurovision week reviews

Jack Black & Lauren Oakley's Jive:

a very back to basics jive, has been used before on strictly, by the lovely deborah meaden and Robin Windsor (RIP Robin)

having said that, it is a fun song and a classic 8


Rihanna & Carlos Gu's Charleston:

perfect charleston choice! one of my personal favourite moldovan entries, actually moldova is one of my fave countries overall

fun, fun, fun 9



Shania Twain & Johannes Radebe's Argentine Tango:

it is a decent tango track, however more suited to ballroom tango, not argentine tango, just my personal opinion, but it is a very authentic choice

8


Danny Dyer & Nancy Xu's Viennese Waltz:

a greek song with a dance originated from austria, can only happen on strictly tibb dancing tbh

the flow of this song matches the flow required for this specific dance quite well

and it is a original choice

9

Britney Spears & Nikita Kuzmin's Paso Doble:

not a huge fan of rock paso's i have to admit, this wouldn't even be out of place on halloween week theme, this is not just a rock paso but a monstrous rock paso, and combined with britney's popstar queen qualities, this is divine 10

Keira Knightley & Gorka Marquez's Theatre Jazz:

i always combined this song with a charleston myself, but the combination with theatre jazz and this song works much better i think, also very traditional jazz somehow, LOVE IT 9

Tom Holland & Michelle Tsiakkas's American Smooth:

not sure about this with a american smooth, it's too foxtrotty and less american smooth for my liking, having said that, a wonderful tune and a wonderful ballroom number 8

Anna Hathaway & Kai Widdrington's Foxtrot

the opposite as the previous performance, this to me fits an american smooth better than a foxtrot i think, but then again, also a lovely ballroom routine 8

Eva Longoria & Neil Jones's Salsa

Eva Esa Diva, we already knew honestly, HOT HOT HOT 10


Chris Pratt & Karen Hauer's Rumba

is more a song for a contemporary, but it works decently for a rumba i think

8


Cheryl Cole & Giovanni Pernice's Contemporary

is too upbeat for a contemporary, would be better matched to a quickstep or tango maybe idk

lovely routine though 7


Catherine Zeta Jones & Aljaz Skorjanec's Waltz

Majestic, Old Hollywood Glamour from the Queen of Hollywood Miss Catherine, however it is a bit too outdated for my liking, but that's my personal taste 7

Pedro Pascal & Nadiya Bychkova's Quickstep

bags of personality, fun quickstep routine, and this song fits Pedro so well, WOW perfection 10
