A melancholy/ nostalgic/ contemporary song?

Contemporary/ lyrical song ideas!?

• Me and my two best friends are doing a dance for my school talent show in January and I really need some song ideas! My one friend wants an upbeat song and the other one wants a slow song so I was wondering if you could think of any songs that could include both? (the ability to have fun with the song but also have beautiful movements) I would like a song thats not super popular (like not Adele's song Someone Like You) But at the same time Im really open to anything!! Also if you know of any good dances that are posted on youtube that would be great! just for ideas! thanks
