Oh god do i ever love that band so win

I myself would love to see some belly dancing, dunno if it'd be fast paced or not, id have to see the female model and her animations, but i think it would really give them some of that big girl sass

^ This. That was my first thought after seeing the awesome Sam B thing. Maybe they could combine the two into some sort of... amazing super-awesome-awkward-dance!

I think the fem pandas would be kinda fun if they did some kind of belly dance. :> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vf0nwAmwpiw

or for a more serious dance they could use moves from Ti chi/ Fan dance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dID-dQpaLbc *thinks about lots of fem pandas all dancing at once*

I think a combination of the belly dance linked by Sylvia, and the original one linked by Veph would be great for the females. Add some sass and goofy fun to a skilled rythm dance? It'd be awesome. Males just need a funny jiggle dance. After all, if you think about it, the only reason that dance command is in the game is to goof around.

I don't care about what they pick for the females. But as for the males Party Rock Anthem all the way!

Please not those two clowns...I hate them and their 'songs'

I want the Chandler Bing's dance for males!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FNtc2qqC24

Since all previous dances in the game have drawn inspiration from popular references of some kind -- I'm going to stick with tradition and guess that Blizzard will select something for both male and female Pandas that is very well known by most people.

Here are some ideas I came up with ...

Male Pandas
Teach Me How To Dougie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cma5wOMKfyg. The best thing about this option is that the dance itself can be customized around the basic moves. Adding a few "martial arts" moves into the routine would make it a perfect fit.
Although, the idea of Pandas groovin' out to "I'm Sexy and I Know It" is a very tempting, and amusing concept


Female Pandas
Bollywood: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZavHLCpSW8k. These type of folk dances incoporate a lot of asian themed moves into the routine. 0:00-1:15 is a nice mix between our current female troll and female draenei dances. I didn't watch the rest of the video but I felt the first routine was a good representation of what I was thinking.
There's also this video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMrN3Rh55uM which combines the aforementioned with our love of gaming -- and because you secretly love watching The Guild anyways

Carmelldansen for the females, hands down. XD

I can't look at all the links right now.... My iPad doesn't like YouTube when I am at work.

But if it's not been suggested yet, this is my pick: LMAFO Party Rock Anthem or Sexy and I Know It.

Get on that Blizz. Now!

I will be so utterly disappointed in Blizzard if the male panda dance isn't some rendition of the Kung Fu Fighting dance. Some people may argue it's racist, but I don't think many of those people watch a lot of the old Japanese movies where most of those exaggerated cinema fighting techniques spawned from. Of course, pandaren are mostly based on Chinese stereotypes, but I do hope they mix in other Asian ethnicities all throughout the expansion and avoid focusing on one in particular.

Kung Fu Fighting, which someone else already linked: http://youtu.be/-OpPwcM_NJw

For female pandas, I will likewise be very disappointed if it's NOT some variation of Caramelldansen. I don't care if it's ridiculous or too simple, it's goddamn adorable!

Caramelldansen, English version: http://youtu.be/A67ZkAd1wmI

I feel like they really dropped the ball with the worgen dances last year. The male was one that was out of left field and something pretty uncharacteristic of worgen in general, then the female one was just really disappointing because they probably picked the worst Lady Gaga dance of them all. I hope that that was due to licensing issues and not because they really thought it was the best. (QQ WHY NOT BAD ROMANCE, BLIZZARD? WHYYYY)

I just hope they pick recognizable dances in general.

Definitly want the Kung-fu Fighting for male pandas...as for the females, I would love to see a fan dance for them or something along those lines.

The Caramelldansen, although well known, its exceedingly simple and plain. WoW dances need to consist of more then a 3-step motion over and over.

CaramellDansen does have more than that.

Also have you seen the Female Dwarf Dance? All they have is riverdance.

Not true! I thought it was simple until I saw this video linked on the beta forums http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3i8wfgk ... re=related

I think the bubbly nature of the females mirror this dance wonderfully. I do like the Bollywood dance linked above, but some of the others are not fitting at all for them. Fan dances would work, but the belly dances look too similar to dances already currently in game. I still wish they would make the idle where they do that 'I'm adorable and I know it' animation would be made into an emote though. I just think some race idles make the chars look silly in certain situations. Sighing or bouncing or making a shy animation during a particularly serious cutscene is just... But I digress.

Caramell for females and LMFAO for males would be <3

I found the right dance for males

I know sumo it's Japanese, but it looks soooo funny And I loved to watch this sport on Eurosport, too bad they won't show it anymore

OMG!1!1! I almost forgot the best dance of them all!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m2WL-0wjFs

I think the dance should be clearly Chinese or Chinese-inspired, like a Tai Chi or Fan dance or a kung fu moves incorporated into it. Anything Beijing operaish sounds good too. I was thinking of the Beaty Song from House of Flying Daggers, but it's a sleeves dance so it doesn't work :/

I deffinitely agree with Kung-Fu Fighting for the male madaren dance, but Caramelldansen would just bug the hell out of me, i would like to see the dance from this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYEDA3JcQqw&ob=av3e (the dancer in the room with all the flower (if it is flower) on the floor.
