Bolero

[danceislove]

I've been watching the music lists for months and there are very little bolero songs on there and no new ones in a while :(
Can you guys please help me out with some bolero songs?? Please? I need one for an upcoming routine. Thank you :D

well, not sure the music list is even operational...must look at that...I would recommend listening to your local jazz channel...there tend to be lots of cool ones on there

Many Int'l Rumbas double as Boleros, since there is very little difference in tempo. Here are a couple Boleros, all at 24 MPM:

"Besame mucho" - Andrea Bocelli, Amore
"32 Flavors" - Alana Davis, Blame It on Me
"One Love" - Mary J Blige and U2, The Breakthrough
"Take My Breath Away" - Berlin, Count Three & Pray
"Where Is the Love? (iTunes Originals Version)" - Black Eyed Peas, iTunes Originals - Black Eyed Peas
"Last Tango in Paris" - Gotan Project, La Revancha del Tango
"Torn" - Natalie Imbruglia, Left of the Middle
"The Look of Love" - Diana Krall, The Look of Love
"Para Tu Amor" - Juanes, Mi Sangre
"Dreams For Plans" - Shakira, Oral Fixation, Vol. 2
"Put Your Records On (Acoustic)" - Corinne Bailey Rae, Put Your Records On (Acoustic) - Single
"Tenderheart" - Lionel Richie, Renaissance

Dunno how many of these are on the song list already, but hopefully it helps!

IMO there is just as much difference in tempo between Int'l Rumba and Bolero as there is between Int'l Rumba and American Rumba.
