AHAHAHA yes, totally awesome zombie bellydancers. they neglected their arms 2/3 of the dance YUCKY YUCK YUCK dont let this trend catch on.

[THETribalDancer]

To be fair, they did this dance exactly as it was choreographed by Suhaila. So the dancers were not "ignoring" the arms. That was how the piece was planned.

[Liszababe]

omg, i've never been so bored watching a belly dance troupe in my life. please! arms should not be left hanging lifeless and just because your going for the goth look doesn't mean you look bored with how your dancing. this dance would have been stronger if it would have been proberly executed.

I love the music, I also like the choreo but what I miss is more dance with your arms. When you use them, it´s nice, but it´s not often..

[GiselleBellyDancer]

Nice music! but the dancers need more rehearsal and less boring!

[Nicodena]

Psh! Haters gonna hate. I love the music and the choreography! :D

I'm not sure what happened to Suhaila in these past years, but when I was introduced to her in 2004-05 I thought she was amazing! To think she's making her dancers dance on stage in ugly metal-style costumes with angry faces and music and no technique whatsoever...

[girlandtheumbrella]

how is this heavy metal? its not metal at all...

[Marhaba1973]

I liked these costumes better than the ones in Suhaila's original. These ladies look metal without flashing their hoo-has at the audience, and the torn band shirts were perfect.

@TheFallenAngelist They aren't fat at all! You have no idea how a healthy women or bellydancer should look like if you call these girls fat.

[Tinkpaars]

Why is it called the dark veil? There is no veil in the dance. And the arms look indeed a bit weird, although it reminds me of celtic dancing, very un-bellydance like. It would've looked better if the arm pose was more a bellydance pose, like when pushing the elbows out. Sorry Suhaila, you could've done better.

[Naderaization]

they suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkk

[TheFallenAngelist]

Okay, first of all, this was the lamest dance in the dance history, second of all, I can do the same thing with my body without all the fat they have, third of all, why are the showing that they are fat I just don't get it, and the forth of all 4:06 minutes of my life, forever gone, thanks a lot for nthn.

@Caleena616 they are making schimmys with very isolated belly rolls while walking around half point. If this isn't advanced then i Don't know! It's very good
