i was thinking beyonce from deja vu but I saw the video again and its not. Could just be an african dance, like the female dervish is just an actual dervish dance with no american pop culture connection.

Can't believe there's a Michael Jackson dance but no moonwalk.

Female Paragon is from the movie Coming to America.

I thought the female paragon's was some sort of "Cheerleader dance routine"
It's spastic.. that's for sure... I mean the Paragon's are supposed to be noble and angelic and holy and all. GOD is her dance bad.

I like the Female Paragon's Dance
Beat It is timed too slow on the male paragon.

I thought the female Dervish's dance looked like something came out of a figure skating routine...
Numa Pompilius
What? No Hammertime? Dammit, ANet!
Horseman Of War
^or ballet routine.
I must have stared at my dervish dance for 6 hours before I finally recognized it... Fatboy Slim ftw. Id like to say for the record that Weapon of Choice was one of the best music videos to come out around the turn of the century. Didnt it win MTV music video award on a couple different levels?
And my thoughts on the female paragon- I love it, couldnt be better.
It wouldnt look so bad if you guys werent so white lol.

Having watched the Coming To America dance and comparing it to the female paragon dance... they are nothing alike. The only similarity there is in the level of intensity - both are very active dances. But that's it.
Wansanchez
i thought the female dervish dance looked like the ballerina in a music box dance.play love story in the background to add emphasis.

Don't you people ever use GuildWiki?

So far the only one that noone seems to know is the Female Paragon.

Hope that in the CE the male Dervish dance does the part where he flys around for a long time. :P

I've never saw the fatboy slim video. Was in university at the time and didn't have access to tv. Now that I've watched it, I dunno how I've never seen it before, it is AWSOME.
As for the female paragon dance, 1 dancer on her own is kinda odd to watch. But get a group of them together dancing in a circle, possibly the best group sync dance in the game

What I think is funny.. Is not one but two people went back and CHANGED their posts in this thread to quote mine when they thought it was the Coming to America dance. lol I read though this forum the other day and their replies were different. That makes me laugh.
I still think it's spazzy.

I still stand by my theory that the Female Paragon is Josephine Baker's "Dance Sauvage."

Hi
I believe, that the female dervish dance is heavily influenced by ballet and is actually a mingle between the traditional dervish dance and classical ballet pirouettes. I guess people would have regarded the traditional dervish dance as pretty boring anyway

Not sure how important that is to either dance style (if Dervish spinning could be called a 'dance'), but it definately sets it apart, methinks.
I'll give it this much, there are some influences.

The only similarity I see between the real dervish dance and the female GW dervish dance is the spinning.
The arm movements, the back-arching, the whole dynamic, all of that reminds me of classical ballet and figure skating.

Maybe the dervish dance just isn't one dance you can find, but a truly creative mixture?
