Foxtrot, West Coast depends on the size of your floor, the skill of your partner and your mood! Good luck!

The rythm of the song is 4/4 While there are many dances that are danced to 4/4 I believe West Coast Swing and Foxtrot fit the charachter of the song the best.

The "box step" works well with this. It’s a basic dance step. 4/4
Keep dancing!

Proper ballroom dance aside, I was just glad to see a question with the words "Magnetic Fields"!!! Right on, comrade!!

I love the magnetic fields.

This song is 4/4 time, which would rule out the waltz. The foxtrot works with 4/4 time though.

I think with this gentle song a slow swaying might be the most appropriate style of dance.

What is the proper ballroom dance for the song "Nothing Matters When We're Dancing" by the Magnetic Fields?
Foxtrot, waltz, other?
And I’m not good with "time" …. is the song 4/4, 3/4, straight-time, etc??
And, you can find a clip of it here…
