Do what you want with this... a really fast samba or merengue (very light hearted!).

AS Rumba, has that "old style" (80s, 90s?) smooth sound.

Bolero, IS Rumba
Die a Happy Man, Thomas Rhett, 2015

 

[regis]

Cha Cha, Bachata
Santana - Anywhere You Want to Go - 2016

Certainly Cha Cha, but I don't hear any Bachata at all. My love for Santana continues still....

AS Rumba, has that "old style" (80s, 90s?) smooth sound.
Make Me Wanna, Thomas Rhett, 2012

I hear more of a slow Swing beat more than a Rumba.

Bolero, IS Rumba
Die a Happy Man, Thomas Rhett, 2015

Love this song... feels a bit more like a bolero.

 

[Partner Dancer]

I hear more of a slow Swing beat more than a Rumba.

This is one of those rare gems that works for many different dances...

ECS, WCS, Hustle, AS Rumba, Cha, Rhythm NC2S, Foxtrot, etc.

The chorus section sounds Swing, whereas the verses section (louder voice) sounds
Rumba (to me). There are lots of instruments and beats going on, but they are
well coordinated.

While most songs that "work" for several dances end up being mediocre for any
of the dances, I don't find this to be the case here. This would be great music
for a "medley" dance which transitions from one dance to another (but still using
the same song).

The radio DJ that played this song thought it was "the best" country song for her.
