Even for the most talented dancers, learning this routine in a few hours, or even a week... is insane. No, they're not tango dancers. They haven't been doing this their whole lives, they had to do this in a very limited amount of time. Imagine what they could learn in a month. I'm amazed.
Tango is not boring at all, the point is: they're not tango dancers, so they naturally don't get the strength and sex appeal that this dance requires (besides the legs moviments that a tango dancer would do better then Melanie). Still, they're amazing, and that was a chalenge.
As much as I love them, on this one I have to say they r not tango dancers, footwork should be staccato, each step takes 2 beats, hold on the 2nd beat. And the body movement is legato, and the chin up head gives the tango attitude !
I agree. I also think he pulled her in too soon around 1:10 and after that they were trying to get back on track till 1:23. I don’t know those 13 minutes looked really-really awkward.
Thank goodness Melanie did at least one dance that was out of her style and showing that she wasn't good at it, considering how she never connected emotionally in her routines and always got contemporary or jazz. She was so fake in this it showed I don't know why the judges kept on and on about her, almost as if they willed her to win. Marko did much better in this.
Your going to mess up sometimes. They didn't challenge her enough either. I felt like Sasha put in the work. The show helped Melanie win. Even at the end. She was given contemporary. Sasha was given the cha cha. I felt as if Melanie was challenged. She would have never won. That Tango was proof. Even her hip hop number was not up to par.
Melanie has the title and the money but she wasn't the better dancer that season. She was America's favorite dancer. Favorite and best. Are to different things. Sasha won the best dancer award. Without a doubt.
She was definitely counting while she was dancing right before the last lift. I hate when dancers do that during a routine. I love her, but that takes away from the dance and makes her look bad.
Thats the difference between Melanie and Sasha. You can tell when Melanie is counting. Watch her mouth in most of her routines. Most dancers open their mouths during dances. Its a way of counting. That kind of ruins the dance for me as well. Sasha doesn't need to count. She becomes the music.
The end was perfect
Melanie and Marko are the definition of power couple.

No! disregard everything I said. Melanie is a great dancer.
This is definitely, without a doubt, tango. Ballroom tango, that is, not the Argentine Tango variety.
If you listen to Mary she tells of all the different types of tango, like 5 or 6 types.
i love this!
She tried her best.
edgy graceful tremendous

The International-Style-part looked awkward (1:04 - 1:24) apart from that I liked it.

This was horrible.

Anyone could do this dance. Just remember to nail the ending.
She did good.
bet you can't do he final lift?! haha... so obvious..
Eh. She always seemed so hunched to me. Stiff, and her shoulders too high.
