The sound and the quality of what's coming out of your feet, and what you're making with those steps. The difference between a good tap dancer and a phenomenal tap dancer, not only is your competence of the step, but the way you can make your feet sing, or the way you can make your feet sound when your tapping and that involves a lot of different things. The way you're placing your feet, kind of keeping light, light on your feet, and thinking about making everything very clean and crisp, and it's just really pleasing, I think to the audience, or to anyone listening to what you're doing.
