You can dance the Macarena to other songs besides the Macarena.

Did that once years ago at an alternative club…security came over and said to cut it out or we’d be bounced. I laughed. They weren’t actually joking.

TIL: the Macarena is not one of those things where no one can stop you.

The dance is 16 beats, so it will technically work for almost any song with a 4/4 time signature. Numa numa, CBAT, Never Gonna Give You Up, Axel F, Do It To It, Get Schwifty; and the list could go on for ages. It’s the most common time signature out there.

Yeah. As a musician, I always think “well… yeah, of course” whenever I hear this. A set of four 4/4 bars is basically the most prevalent phrasing in popular Western music, and it has been the case for centuries at this point in time.

Historical note: This is also true of the Locomotion, the Twist, the Time Warp, and the Monster Mash.
