My students and I love this dance. A great dance to a great song, sung by Namika. Hayley Wheatley has done a great job. The steps and the music fit perfectly together. Please give this dance a chance. It's not important if you understand the lyrics. It's much more important, that you can feel the harmony between the steps and the music.
