Question

I am doing a jazz solo and i want a good song. it should be a fun song but not too trendy.what do you think??

Answer 1

you cant stop the beat- hairspray

hey big spender

find a new way- young love

Answer 2

upbeat, catchy:

jackie wilson said- van morrison (listen to it, seriously i got all platinums and a special song award at competition)

sweet dreams- the eurythmics

DON'T STOP ME NOW by QUEEN (PERFECTTTTT)

get up offa that thing (sort of slow) by james brown

i feel good, also by james brown

do you love me? by the contours (this girl at my studio named athena got #1 overall with this song)

darker, more lyrical but still jazzy:

wanted by vanessa carlton

uninvited by alanis morrisette (WEIRD)

Answer 3

What instrument do you play? Or are you dancing?

Sorry. Just realized I was in the "Dancing" subsection. When I took jazz we did an awesome dance to "Purple Rain" by Prince.

I would also look at some of Art Blakey's music. It's classic jazz music with an awesome beat that would be really fun to dance to.

Answer 4

shake it-metro station

all that jazz-chicago

cant take my eyes off you-jamie kennedy

aint no other man-christina aguilera

bleeding love-leona lewis

bittersweet symphony-oasis

come so far, got so far to go-hairspray (:

all i got.

hope i helped.

(:

Answer 5

One song I'm thinking of doing is I don't wanna be by Gavin Degraw. It has a lot of meaning I think. It depends what type of jazz you're looking for though, trashy or like Broadway? I good idea is to look some up on you tube. You can often find some coll songs on there that people have already danced to/
