Talk:Just Dance 2019/@comment-27537247-20181004193425

I've got opinions. I guess.

New Rules: First off: I'm glad that I finally got a prediction right. Ever since Havana has been revealed, none of the songs that have been revealed were on my prediction list (and yes, I realize we've known about this for a while. Doesn't count; we didn't have footage). But it's not like this was a hard guess. About the routine itself, it's alright. The choreography is well suited to the confident and sassy tone of the song and looks to be fun to follow, and although most of you will disagree, the background is what a background should be. Good visuals to both maintain engagement and fit the theme of the routine, but not so extravagent that it commands attention away from the coach. So... good job I guess.

Not Your Ordinary: My immediate impression was that it was far too similar in style to Tumbum (the visuals and choreo, not the song), so my gut reaction was to dislike it. But upon a rewatch, it's better than Tumbum in every way that matters. The song is easier to listen to and dance to, the dance moves feel like dance moves, and I really appreciate the die-cut pattern of the lyrics in the background. It's still my least favorite of the three, but it's not a flop. At least not compared to the songs I consider a flop.

Sweet Little Unforgettable Thing: I was worried about this one, but the routine is actually really solid. The song is catchy enough for its inclusion in Just Dance to make sense, and the specific moves feel totally unique to this song. Really fun to follow along too, and I can appreciate the extra tracking on some of the moves that give it a Just Dance 2014 feel. The background is nothing special, but again it doesn't need to be. I don't require a Beat Saber or Disney's Fantasia remake, nor do I need a full render of Shanghai at night. It just needs to fit the song and at least do something. Which it does. The routine doesn't blow me away like New World or Sugar did, but it's still a really good routine.
