Ballroom dance songs?

So, I do ballroom dance competitively, and I’m looking for songs (especially popular ones that I can easily find to download) for practicing. So far, I’m basing my list off what I hear at competitions, and I have:

Waltz:
-Greensleeves

Foxtrot:
-Beyond the Sea

Viennese Waltz:
-Only Hope (Mandy Moore version)

Quickstep:
-Istanbul not Constantinople
-70’s Spiderman theme (I’m not kidding, this stuff really does get played at competitions)

Cha-Cha:
-Mambo Italiano (a recent version)

Swing:
-I Kissed a Girl – Katy Perry

Jive:
-Candyman – Christina Aguilera
-Mambo Italiano (original version)

I’m looking for more songs for all of these, plus tango, rumba (both kinds), and anything else. I also heard ‘Disturbia’ by Rihanna at a competiton once, but I can’t remember what dance it was for.
I now also have:

Money, Money, Money – ABBA (tango)
Temptation – Arash (cha-cha?)
Hound Dog – Elvis Presley (jive)
Fly Me To The Moon – Frank Sinatra (foxtrot)
Secret – Michael Buble
Sway – Micheal Buble (I think this version is cha-cha)
Come So Far – Hairspray (jive)
Smooth – Santana (cha-cha)

I’d say Disturbia was used for Cha Cha

I would recommend:

Waltz:

Foxtrot: Fever by Buble

Viennese Waltz: Carousel Waltz

Tango: Money Money Money by Abba

Quickstep: Mark Sholtez – Not what I’ll Be Missing

Rumba: Secret – Maroon 5; Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps (from Strictly Ballroom)

Jive: Reach – S Club 7 (also used at competitions); Come So Far – Hairspray

That’s about all off the top of my head. I’ll reply when i have thought of more (and whetever they play at dancing tonight)
