Sorry the 2nd post is later this week; I didn't manage to get it finished yesterday. :)
I haven't done that many general dance videos posts (featuring more than one more genre) lately. My last one was Dance Videos- Couples' Edition 2! in May but apart from that, I haven't written a lot this year.
So today I'm featuring a variety of videos from different genres. :)
[TPOP IN PUBLIC | ONE TAKE] FEAT- PIXIE | SINGAPORE DANCE COVER OPEROSE
First up, some T-pop (Thai pop) in Public! This is a dance cover of FEAT by Thai girl group PiXXie. It was released in May last year as a digital single.
The cover is performed by OPEROSE. They are a dance cover crew from Singapore.
The video premiered in April and features MEGZ as Mabelz, JIAYI as Pimma and REENA as Inghko. It' s a one-take video, meaning it was filmed all in one go.

[KPOP IN PUBLIC | TIMES SQUARE | ONE TAKE] Girls' Generation- 'The Boys' | Obsessed Dance
Next, we have some K-pop in Public! Here is a new cover of the classic song The Boys by popular Korean 2nd generation girl group Girls' Generation.
The Boys was the title track from Girls' Generation's 3rd Korean (and 4th overall) album, which was released back in October 2011. It was released as the lead single (also in October) and an English language version followed 2 months later.
It's one of my favourite songs of theirs. :) I like both versions, but the English one slightly more.
This is a cover of the Korean version and is performed by OBSESSED DANCE, a dance crew from New York City. The video (which premiered in June) was filmed in Times Square and is also a-one take.
The dancers are Zoe as Jessica, Jessica as Tiffany, Estella as Yuroi, Becky as Sooyoung, Feifei as Tayeon, Sophie as Sunny, Alivia as Hyoyeon, Alisa as Yoona and JunDan as Seohyun.
Check out my post from 2012 to see the music video for The Boys (both versions): https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2012/12/girls-generation-1st-uk-single.html
In June I wrote a post featuring K-pop in Public covers of classic girl group songs, including The Boys. You can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2025/06/k-pop-in-public-girl-group-classics.html

[DANCE IN PUBLIC] TYLA | PUSH 2 START + JUMP + WATER (MIX) MINIZIZE CHOREOGRAPHY DANCE COVER- BBKOVZ
In the past year or so, the Dance in Public covers have expanded beyond K-pop (where I think it originated) and Asian genres, into other genres, such as Western and South African in this case!
This is a cover of several songs by South African singer Tyla- PUSH 2 START, Jump and the remix of her hit single Water.
Water was released in July 2023, the lead single from Tyla's debut self-titled album (which came out in March 2024) and is one of her most successful singles to date. Jump was the 4th single from TYLA (released in May 2024) and PUSH 2 START came out last October, alongside the deluxe edition of the album, TYLA+.
The original cover was choreographed by Thai choreographer Earth_prompen and performed by members of Thai dance studio MINIZIZE in January. Watch their performance here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIWR_FcRUro
This cover is by BBKOVZ (a dancer from London) and friends! It was uploaded in April. See the info box on YouTube for the dancers' Instagram links. :)

And here is another dance cover of a mix of Tyla songs, this time by Two Secrets. They are a dance group from Madrid, Spain, currently made up of 6 members ranging from the ages of 17 to 21.
