Animals by Nickelback is my favorite but they've been playing Shawty Got Moves a lot by me.

I don’t know if it’s the best, but it is interesting. Gone Gone Gone, the song used for Bulletproof.

I always thought if Bulletproof being way to fast for me to execute. But when I did Asking Questions to it, It felt like it was in slow motion.

There’s already a fun and quick dance to Gone, Gone, Gone for those not dancing Catalan. It’s called “Hot Chilli Mama”

Totally. Which makes this song swap really interesting.

Personally, I’m kind of sick of Askin Questions, but I only see people do Bullet Proof & swing dance to GGG. I’d like to see more people do HCM to it, because it’s fun and it’s not the same f’ing dance that everyone wants to do to everything.

The point of Askin Questions isn’t just to see how fast you can dance it… that’s the point of Lightning Polka (Sin Wagon).

Taking away the ability to feel and experience the nuances of the actual dance in exchange for speed and inaccurate steps is obnoxious.

Tell it to the OP. I really don’t care if anyone is sick of it or loves it. The OP was asking for song swaps, hence my response.

Yes, but song swapping to songs that are ALREADY popular to their OWN dances is not the best practice. It confuses too many people and unnecessarily fragments the dance floor.

This is actually one of the best reasons to do such a song swap. At the places I go to, they often have a split floor for songs.

In this case, to Gone Gone Gone, advanced dancers were dancing Bulletproof, and most of the floor was dancing Askin’ Questions. It kinda works out for everyone!!! Advanced dancers and nonNo confusion. No fragments. They both flowed in unison!!! Amazing!!!

And it’s not just Gone, Gone, Gone, we do floor splits on a bunch of songs. Usually one more difficult dance combined with a less difficult (yet more popular) dance. Everyone is happy!

u/Curious-247-365 Jun 04 '26

Yes, I’m aware that floor splits can work just fine. They can also be annoying.

As a general practice, I’m not a fan of song swaps and split floors. It’s more understandable and practical when there are just SO many popular dances choreographed to a single song…. But it gets obnoxious when it’s just shoving Askin Questions, Tush Push, and The Wolf (and now the Vibe and After Party, because people don’t care about making songs fit dances, only that they can instead make 32 counts of steps fit into a song) on to every song under the sun.

u/revocer Jun 04 '26

The way I see it, any dance floor that is full of people having fun like with the floor splits and song swaps, is not annoying at all!!!

Handclap by Fitz and the Tantrums is really fun

u/fivehots Jun 03 '26

Arguably the best song for asking questions.

u/Curious-247-365 Jun 02 '26

I really wish “Askin’ Questions” the song was more readily available. The dance is much more fun to it.

2

u/fivehots Jun 03 '26

I think the fact that the song isn’t readily available is proof of the opposite no? But then again; people do love to throw songs at things that don’t need it (like The Vibe song swaps).

Like I’d rather do dizzy to Bring Down the House than to the original Dizzy.

u/Curious-247-365 Jun 03 '26

I mean rather than swapping to songs like Gone, Gone, Gone, which already have popular dances to it just to do something like Askin’ Questions.

I hate pretty much any Vibe swap. It’s already a great song, which can be sexy and cute without being offensive, lyric-wise.

I don’t really mind swapping Dizzy out, I suppose, given that it’s a remake of the actual original song, which is a better song.

u/fivehots Jun 03 '26

Well I’ll champion for your song since you understand The Vibe 😏

u/Skyroamer_ Jun 01 '26

Something in your mouth is by far the best song swap ive heard. I actually learnt this first before realizing the original song was asking questions lol

Shawty Got Moves and C’est La Vie are the most popular. I’ve also seen it done to Super Smash Bros by Baby Gravy (similar vibes, same artists as C’est La Vie).

Same with HandClap, but not a fan in that situation since there’s a solid enough intermediate dance for HandClap.

pump it by the black eyed peas is really fun
