24 Count, 4 Wall
9/27/2025
Intro: 16 counts
Note: This dance comes alive with added arm movements as described below. Omitting some or all of them, and using the easier "vine" option for S1, makes the dance accessible to many beginner dancers.

&3&4

&7&8
Step L to left (&), low kick with R (7), step R slightly back (&), cross L over R (8)

Tag here on wall 2 (9:00), wall 7 (12:00) & wall 13 (12:00) (when Jon sings "You, You, YOU"), then restart

Tag (8 counts): Occurs after S1 at wall numbers and directions noted above (it's fun & easy!)
1-2
Deep cross step R over L (1), hold (2) (during both counts, extend both arms to right with index fingers pointed to right, head/eyes looking right)
3-4
Deep cross step L over R (3), hold (4) (during both counts, extend both arms to left with index fingers pointed to left, head/eyes looking left)

Ending (optional): You will be facing 9:00 after count 8 of S1 on wall 16. Immediately stomp ¼ right on R, looking forward with arms spread to sides.
