tanzinsonger

A song about a dance of the same name. From the literal German, "Dance in Songer." Tanzinsongers feature lyrics describing or referring to a dance that does not yet exist, except within the song. In the act of publishing a truly successful tanzinsonger, an artist creates both a catchy tune and a dance that endures to bring groups of strangers together to move in unison for generations to come.

Examples include

The Twist
The Electric Slide
The Monster Mash

The Locomotion
The Hokey Pokey
The Cha Cha Slide
The Electric Slide
The Tootsie Roll
The Crocodile Rock
And so many others you may want to explore and try for yourself.

Tommy really didn't want to to the wedding in the first place but after joining the noted tanzinsonger, The Electric Slide, he loosened up a bit and realized he still had the moves to groove and the cold ones were pretty cold and he almost forgot about the dread and anger than animated his daily life.
