She has a ton of training and a lot of experience. I have no explanation for why she seems to have lost her own rhythm at some point. But I do know that, at one point, she had the skills. She hasn't done the choreography thing in a VERY long time. So, it's good that she's going to do it during disco week, as I expect the moves to be pretty dated. Basically, she's got the resume to choreograph a group number, she just doesn't have the latest dance "language" so to speak. That said - I'm waaaay interested to see what she comes up with.

Hopefully Allison will do that. Its pretty much in her key as is and Fantasia didn't do so well with it, so its safe from comparisons. It would be a breath of fresh raw power on a night full of falsettos, so will stand out. It will also give TPTB more flexibility in positioning her as the soul boys will all go soft next week, those that remain that is. Fantasia did Holding Out For A Hero, season 3 on Disco Week.

Dannyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s not totally out to sea here. Disco had a lot of black church music in it.

à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Love Trainà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  – Oà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢Jays
à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“The Love I Lostà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  / à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Bad Luckà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  / à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Wake Up Everybodyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  original à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t Leave Me This Wayà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  – Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes (lead vocal by Teddy Pendergrass)

Danny will sing Don’t Leave Me This Way. :wallbash_tb:

Adam will probably shock us all by turning a cheesy disco song into a lovely mid-tempo power ballad. He hasn’t done a ROF-style total rearrangement in a while.

The potential for cheese, and not the good kind, is overwhelming. Danny will be unable to resist the call of velveeta. Matt and Anoop, if they are still there, will be pure corn. There is nothing disco about Alison. Lil has been handed a gift on a silver platter, and she will still find a way to blow it. Kris is way too vanilla for disco. Adam should do well thought. He does disco every damn week anyway. Shoot me now. DISCO WEEK????!!

I live in Denmark and that group is STILL just overplayed here...they ¨'ve made a comeback with the youngsters...honestly cannot abide their music. If LIl survives, I'm sure she wll sing a Donna Summers ¨' song. I think Kris should sing "Jungle Boogie". Hee. Allison- maybe I will survive...but 1 minute 30 seconds really does shorten that Disco anthem. Hmmmm. If she survives she needs a comeback but she really edffed up last night. Maybe Adam should sing y"ou can ring my bell" One of the best songs from the disco era. I hope he doesn't start becoming predictable by singing a bee Gees song-falstto and all that- although I used to love the BeeGees. …and please no Abba!

But he's smart so I'm not too worried for him. It's one of those categories where you can make it much better by simply rearranging some cornball song and making it lovely, so actually I think anyone can do well. And I'm really looking forward to Paula's choreography. The group number should be fun! I bet their outfits will be a blast.
