Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Ok I was a dace teacher for like 12 years some of the great artisits I would have you look into are

Ani Difranco
look up Shameless or Both Hands they are great also

Tori Amos
Little earthquakes, 1,000 oceans, precious things, winter

Jennifer Kanpp or Ginney Owens are really good also

or try Chantal Kreviazuk- feels like home!.

I hope you find oneWww@QuestionHome@Com

Personal favorite (I was in a dance to this song, and it's just AMAZING!. there are no lyrics though, it's instrumental):

Lux Aeterna - Clint Mansell

Other ideas:

Existentialism on Prom Night - Straylight Run

Concrete Angel - Martina McBride

Apologize - One Republic (a bit overused though)


They are all kinda slow, i hope that's what you are looking for! I would suggest "The Moment I Said It" by Imogen Heap but you said your teacher didn't like her =[Www@QuestionHome@Com

i cant believe that your teacher didnt like imogean heap!.!.!. i did this cool dance to hide and seek, and i suggest it for anyone, but i still cant believe that she didnt like her!.


Anyway-- a deep song is "Sorry" by Maria Mena!. Beautiful!. even if you dont use it listen to it!.


Good luckWww@QuestionHome@Com

try 9 crimes by Damian Rice!!! i can picture THE PRETTIEST DANCE ever to that song!!

also try Dare You to Move by Switchfoot!. i was going to do my solo to that, but then i injured myself :(

and i have always wanted to have a dance done to numb, by linkin parkWww@QuestionHome@Com

try contemporary christian songs like from the bands umm!.!. casting crowns, mercy me, point of grace, and theres a really great band that i cant put my finger on the name of it!.!.its something like 'selena'!.!.!.i dont remember, sorry, but its got good songs!Www@QuestionHome@Com
