    Salsa's cool, but it doesn't get into me and make me want to move the way Swing can. There's just so much more energy in Swing.
    'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
    Or a yawing hole in a battered head
    And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
    And there they lay I damn me eyes
    All lookouts clapped on Paradise
    All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!

    You've maybe just danced to slow Salsa or very "difficult" (almost a-rythmic) Salsa.

    Some of the songs really don't immediately "get me" either, but some others do.

    Nah, I've done a lot of different types of salsa. It's just the type of rhythm doesn't resonate with me the way that the swingyness of swing can, no matter the tempo.

    I like to dance, I dance everywhere. To any kind of music at just about anytime. electronic, 80's hair rock, hip hop, death metal, punk rock, even a nice flow of hippie jam. Basically I like to groove, break, mosh, rage etc...its a lot of fun.

    Oh and black doesn't always refer to race in the music industry. Its a term that is also very common to mean anti-establishment music or music that got its roots from anti-establishment. Black metal is a pretty common one. But Rap, Reggae, hip hop and RnB really started as fairly anti-establishment types of music. not sure if thats whats meant by the term here, but black has multiple meanings when describing art forms.

    I like to dance. I'm not a very good dancer but it's fun. Not really fussed about what type of music is played, although I suppose I prefer to "dance" to rock and metal music because that does not require much coordination or finesse, which suits me perfectly :P
