Shiver

Digipak. Following on from the Sell-Out Nme Premier Tour, Coldplay Return with their Fantastic First Single for 'Shiver'. Includes Two New Tracks 'Careful Where You Stand'& the John Barry-Esque 'For You'.
Customer Review: Excellent single
This is a decent single. What I love about Coldplay is that most of the time they put out really good b-sides; good, original, unreleased songs, not just some live track or dance remix. I wish the singles market here in the States was as large as it is over in England cause I feel we're really missing out on some great stuff. Anyway.... "Shiver" was never really my favorite of Coldplay's songs. It's not bad, it's just not as good as most of their others. Track 2, "For You" is not bad, it's a slow piano based number that moves along gently yet never quite achieves lift-off. The closing song, "Careful Where You Stand" is a great one however. It has a beautiful melody and a wonderful guitar part. It's definitely better than some of the tracks off of Parachutes. A decent single, worth the five dollars you can get it for.
Customer Review: Shiver
This is a pretty good A-side song, I would recommend getting the single for all Coldplay fans who like to have the B-sides that you can only get on the singles.


Over the last 45 years that I have been involved teaching Ballroom Dancing, the biggest problem that I see with Beginner Dancers is that they do not want to learn all the popular dances, they just want to learn the dance that's popular and just enough to get by. Of course, it's fun to learn more steps in your favorite dances, but not to expand your variety is a real mistake.

Can you imagine only wearing one suit of clothing day after day? How boring that would be, not only for you, but especially for the people that are around you daily. Oh, there's Mr. One Suit, or Mr. Brown Pants...Boring.

Well, increasing your dance variety insures that you will be able to stay on the dance floor and keep having a good time with your favorite dance partner. The worst feeling is having to tell your special lady friend that we will have to sit this dance out because you don't know how to dance to the music that's playing. Before you know it, your lady is off dancing with someone else...
When you're having a good time, do you want to interrupt the flow of the evening? I don't think so..

Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Rumba, Cha Cha, East & West Coast Swing, Salsa, Mambo, Samba, Meringue. are the popular Night Club dances. The more you learn about these dances, the more you realize that they interrelate in one way or another...For example, a box step can be done in Foxtrot, Waltz, or Rumba, but of course the styling characteristics will differ from dance to dance, which will make each dance look different...

It's much better to learn 4 or 5 steps in all these dances, then to learn 25 steps in one or two of the dances. Why? Because, diversity on the dance floor will make you a sought after dance partner, and a more popular individual around your own social group. plus you will overcome a Beginners Nightmare, to be considered a BORING dance partner...

Remember Gentlemen, if you don't know all the dances, the other guy will.
