SYTYCD Season 7 Premiere Episode Music
Tonight, I need y’all’s help. I’ll probably be running late from work and the audition episodes are always hard. So, if you’re a human jukebox like Marianya or have a Midomi or are just a know-it-all, feel free to chime in in the comments. I’ll flesh out the music list from your comments and my own finds, so keep checking back!!!
SYTYCD Season 6 Premiere Music List
New York Auditions
Opening song: Jimmy James “Fashionista” –
Future of the Left “Arming Eritrea” –
Waiting in line: Kill Hannah “New York City Speed” –
Waiting in line: Alicia Keys’s “Empire State of Mind Broken Down” – Straight from my list of predicted Season 7 Music Two cool points for me!
Some classical with violins – Vitamin String Quartet “Hallelujah” – Thanks to commenter Courtney for pointing this one out. I thought I recognized it! Thanks, Courtney!
Sarah Brinson (amazing, “big” dancer/Charlize Theron) interview – Rebecca Sayre “New Girl” – Thanks Marianya!
Sarah Brinson audition: Ben E. King “Stand By Me” –
Giselle Peacock and Henry Byalikov (Burn the Floor dancers) audition: Fulanito “Chillando Goma” – Thanks to our reader Ryan for this find!!
Mike Perlman: Dead or Alive “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” – Marianya said this version is by a band called Orgy, but they’re not on iTunes (that I can see), so enjoy the Dead or Alive version.
Bad dancing montage: (“everybody’s doing what they shouldn’t be doing, everybody’s moving…”) Electric 6 “Improper Dancing” –
Teddy Tedholm (crazy pants from last season, suit this season): Damien Rice “All Dressed Up” – Our reader Anestazia pointed out that it’s a hidden track called “Prague” on the cd “O”. Thanks, Anestazia!
Good dancing montage (Briana De Falco, Daniel Baker): Either Devotchka’s “Queen of the Surface Streets” – or “How It Ends” – or “The Winner Is” – depending on who you talk to. But, clearly, Devotchka. 🙂 The winner is…”The Winner Is,” but I’m gonna leave the other links up so you can enjoy.
Scott Vogel (biohazard/cereal bar guy looking for a date): Madison Cowboy & DJ Robbie & Fabby T “Last Night” –
Chris “Isolock” Dixon (striped shirt & hat): Boys Noise “Let’s Buy Happiness” – according to reader Jojodi.

[Marianya’s Addendum 9th June]
Jamie Greco’s pre-audition interview: “Goodbye Horses” by William Garvey & Q Lazzarus
Jamie Greco (makes horror movies, wore a fruit hat): Jermaine Stewart “We Don’t Have to Take Our Clothes Off” –
Hit the floor montage (dancers falling): Ray Charles “Mess Around” –
Wadi Jones (ran up walls, etc) Interview song: Rob Dougan “Clubbed to Death” – according to our reader, Icka.
[Marianya’s Addendum]
Wadi Jones’ Audition Song: ??
Anthony Burrell (in a 2-person “good dancing” montage): Chris Brown “Fallin’ Down” – Thanks to our commenter Erin for correcting my kinda desperate guess (lol, Space Cowboy’s “Falling Down” ).
Megan Davis (the other in the “good dancing” montage): Kate Nash “Nicest Thing” – LOVE this song!
Edward Spots (from New Orleans!! tried out last season, crazy legs, Alvin Ailey): haven’t found yet
Megan Carter (“thicker” dancer who admires Mia): pretty sure it’s Destani Wolf’s “7th Heaven,” which isn’t on iTunes. I think it was created to replace an audition song they couldn’t get cleared. Check out her website, here: http://www.destaniwolf.com/.
[Marianya’s Addendum] If you guys go to the link and scroll further down the page, there is a “Featured Video” provided of Megan Carter’s audition with a caption notating that Destani’s vocals were for her audition.
Miami Auditions
Montage: Ou Est Le Swimming Pool “Dance the Way I Feel” – Thanks to our commenter R2 for naming this song!
Michael Petr (German inspired to dance by “Dirty Dancing”) interview: Eric Carmen “Hungry Eyes” –
Michael Petr audition: Kelly Clarkson “Walk Away” –
Michael Petr yes to Vegas: Bill Medly and Jennifer Warner “I’ve Had the Time of My Life” – (also from “Dirty Dancing,” of course)
Beach montage: Gloria Estafan “Rhythm is Gonna Get You” – ?
Tyrell Rolle (from Liberty City, black guy with crazy hat and glasses) interview segment: DJ Khaled “B*tch I’m from Dade County” – ? Is that a weird guess?
Tyrell Rolle 2nd interview song: Ryan Calhoon “Who We Are” – Thanks again, Marianya, I LOVE this song! Had never heard it!
Tyrell Rolle audition song: Sam Sparro “Black and Gold” – One of my favorites!!!
Henry Rivera (student who freaked out): Richard Walters “The Animal” – Thanks to our commenter Nicole for this amazing find!

Bad dancing montage: DJ Sightless “Murder on the Dance Floor” – As suggested by our writer Amanda. I had to guess at the artist. 🙂
[Marianya’s Addendum] Thanks to the artist Dirty Vici, it’s verified that the song used is his version. Please visit his website to learn more about this artist and to listen to his music! Unfortunately there’s no iTunes or Amazon link to this song. 🙁 so we’re keeping the DJ Sightless version for your listening enjoyment.
CSI spoof montage to the CSI Miami theme song: The Who “Won’t Get Fooled Again” –
Jose “Full Deck” Ruiz (thinks he’s better than Legacy, in a sweet way): LTD “Love to the World” –
Next episode will be the L.A./Chicago auditions. I’m so excited! But I need a big ole rest after tonight’s excitement!
Here’s a link to the initial schedule I posted before – up to the Top 10, for y’all’s information.
@Starla: Here’s a remix of “Last Night” by Madison Cowboy and DJ Robbie.
@Emilie – If you look at the bottom of the website link of Destani Wolf that you provided, she provides the video of Megan Carter that features her song… So good job Emilie.
You are awesome 🙂 Thank you soooo much- I was looking EVERYWHERE for last nights songs to be listed and am so happy I found your page. Brava!
@Marianya: Happy accidents are lovely. 🙂 Um, no, I totally MEANT to include that, yes. What you talking bout? COURSE I did it on purpose. Lol.
@Kat: You are why we do this! Just you. Not anybody like you, but you alone. Welcome to the site. 🙂
@Everyone: My sense of humor’s a little crazy today. Don’t mind me. SYTYCD-induced lack of sleep, at work, too much coffee.
@ Emilie – thank you so much. I’ve never heard of her, and I just checked our her website. Great voice!! Thanks again!!!
@Grace: You’re welcome! That’s what we’re here for! 🙂
I am so great I found this site. I was wondering what song did Ami Aguiar from Maimi danced to. I like the song and I also love how Ami performed. Too bad that the judges cut it very shortly. I want to see more of her dancing. And that Darla, the one with her dad, oh damn but, oh not now I guess.
Hey Emilie, I love this site and for sure I will always be back for more updates from you about my new idol Ami Aguiar. Keep me posted.
Thanks!
Hi Jonie, glad we could help you out! That’s a good point about Daria – it’ll be interesting to see if she’s still “the girl who danced with her dad” if she ditches her dad and comes back next season with a new partner.
Hi Emilie,
I appreciate your immediate response. Thank you so much. Give me more updates on Ami since she’s my newest idol in dancing. Let’s forget about Daria. Hehe.. just joking.
Has anyone found the song that Edward Spots danced to? I loved it and I’m dying to know what it is!!
Hey,
Can someone please fix the artist under my song?
My song “Murder On The Dance Floor” says the artist is DJ Sightless and it should read DIRTY VICI. I would really appreciate it!! 🙂
Not sure if this has already been corrected, but the reason you cannot find Orgy’s “You Spin Me” is because it is actually by a band called Dope, not Orgy.
What was the name of the song that “Edward Spots” danced to?
What about the song when Cat was introducing The Bronx? No lyrics — but sooo familiar.
Right at 32:33.
Thank you for the list above ! Ever so helpful. I was wondering if anyone here still remembered the song played in the Dallas auditions for S4 SYTYCD ? Right after Arielle Coker got sent through to Vegas, they showed a composition of short clips of several dancers (incl. Comfort, Chris Jarosz & Chelsie Traille) with the same song. The lyrics went something like ‘You got no place to hide/hunt’ ? I have been trying to find out the name of the song.
The pre-audition song for Wadi Jones was “Clubbed To Death” from the Matrix. (Where they show him running in the streets.) But what song did he actually AUDITION to? It’s not “Clubbed To Death”.
Well, to answer my own question, I think they were playing “Eple” by Royksopp when introducing the Bronx segment. Pretty wicked if so.
Re Hallelujah, Vitamin String Quartet has recorded two songs by that name. If you’re hunting for it on Youtube or elsewhere, the one you want is the Paramore cover/tribute.
does anyone have any idea the title of one of the songs in the commercials previous to this weeks auditions there was one that went something like “get your party on” and “to the beat to the rythym i flow i just wanna let it go, raise your hands touch your toes” i googled the lyrics and couldnt find anything… here is the link to the video if that helps http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/video/video.php?v=1480619696804&ref=mf
THIS WEBSITE IS AMAZING!!! THANK YOUUU!
WOW! WHO ARE YOU?? YOU’RE MY DREAM COME TRUE BLOGGER!! I NEVER BLOG(probably only one alive not blogging yet) AND WAS DYING TO GET A BREAKDOWN LIST OF ALL THESE SONGS THEY’RE USING! YOU JUST MADE MY LIFE SO MUCH EASIER! THANK YOU AND KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK!!!! =-)
Christine – the song that you’re looking for is:
Simian Mobile Disco – I Got This Down
Note: if you go to the link provided (it leads to a YouTube vid) the lyrics in question shows up at approx 17 seconds into the video… the beat I think is very similar.
Melissa, that song in the Bronx segment is (you were close) “Happy Up Here” by Röksopp. 🙂 http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/happy-up-here/id308974500?i=308974511
@Kleigh: Here is a link to Dope’s “You Spin Me” It’s hard to tell the difference between the Dead or Alive/Orgy/Dope versions right now. But we want to make sure everybody has access to the music, whatever it is! 🙂
@Devan & Alison & all the newbies: Welcome to the site! I’m so glad you’re finding it useful, because that’s why John started it and that’s why all of us write for it! It’s such a pleasure to find that song that I *need* to find and even more so when it’s the song that many people *need* to find.
I’m joining the others who are anxiously awaiting the title of the beautiful piano / classical audition piece used by Edward Spots!
