This dance was choreographed for Bad Moon Rising because it is one of my all-time

favorite songs, but the dance really feels great to the faster suggested songs. For

those that the dance has been taught to, there is mixed feelings - some like the

slower Bad Moon Rising, others like the faster version. I suggest you try both.
