Amazing song ideas for a lyrical/contemporary dance piece?
Could you give me some ideas for a song for a lyrical/contemporary dance piece I want to create?Something that will leave everyone in awe or amazement. Something that will make everyone in the audience either cry or get really into it while I'm dancing. Something super powerful like that. Nothing too long please. No super old music (like 80s music or something) or trashy music please. I'm 14 by the way and this will be a solo piece.
Update:Please something not too common. But not super weird and rare if that makes sense..lol.
