    2:03 The whole section is made to suit the new, repetitive sounding part of the song. 2:36 A single move to suit the singers: "ohhh" It's even in Jordan's face!

    So I have picked out simply a couple of the easier musicality bits for your tiny brain to digest. As for a 'Serious' Swing dancer, they have won the US Swing Open Championships (arguably THE most prestigious competition in the world) like 6 / 7 times? If anyone's serious, I would call J+T serious...

  • @HunterstonB In this statement alone you have proven your naiveity when it comes to musicality. They are obviously dancing on a level not comprehensible to you.

    They pick up on the tiniest sounds, instrument changes and tones within music.

    Look at their very first move; in time with the violin.

    1:18 A coincidence they picked up on the word ;fear' in the music with a death drop?

    1:32 "Closed on me" they completely change style for a split second to hit those words.

    continued...

  • Anyone can beat their musicality - they have none. It's extraordinarily technical dancing, but the choice of music itself tells you everything. There's nothing to dance to in it. It's just a beat. Very simple, like ballroom strict tempo music, no syncopation, no breaks, no pauses, no changes of temp.

    It's about the last track on earth serious swing dancer would choose to dance to.

  • I just watched 3 dances they did at this event and all are TECHNICAL. How do you memorize so many dances that are so technical? I suppose wcs allows you to do a lot of leadable moves, which probably helps, and many moves used on the dance floor socially, but the uber technical moves and keeping it all straight is impressive. I wonder if any dances just are ad lib with specific marks needed to be hit for choreography. I've seen them do amazing things in J&J's so it wouldn't surprise me.

  • 1:45....hahaha he hit her

  • love her spin,,,

  • You guys inspire me!

  • The Best!!!!

  • Tatiana's facial expressions kill me :-)
