Top 20 Cha Cha and Rumba Songs


You may have noticed it…. I like music as well as dancing and I’ve found this youtube video by the rejected1. It’s his list of top 20 Cha Cha songs as of 2009 and has pretty good songs in it. I recognize a lot of these songs from videos of recent competitions. There are a few that I didn’t know the song titles, so I actually bought some of them.

He (or she?) and I seem to have a similar taste in cha cha songs. He has a rumba version of the video but I like his cha cha songs list better.

Hope you can find some song titles you were looking for.

UK Open Championship 2010 Pro Latin Results


The 2010 UK Open Championship Professional Latin was held in January 21st, so this is not really new but I want to put the results here anyway. Top 2 couples were as expected and a lot of people were speculating/wondering how Slavik Kryklyvy and Anna Melnikova would do. They got the fifth place followed by Andrej Skufca and Melinda Torokgyorgy, another new partnership. Another new partnership, Stefano Di Fillipo and Olga Urumova didn’t make it to the final. I read somewhere that they were going to represent Ukraine but it looks like they were dancing for Italy.


Final

1 Michal Malitowski & Joanna Leunis Poland
2 Riccardo Cocchi & Yulia Zagorouitchenko USA
3 Franco Formica & Oxana Lebedew Germany
4 Sergey Sourkov & Agnieszka Melnicka Russia
