ENDING
This song fades out and stops shortly after 2 minutes. Slow down dancing in time with the music through counts 16 to end facing the front wall at 2:22. I suggest a hard fade, ending the dance at that point
If continuing to the end of the song, dance through counts 16, then pause/hold/etc for 8 counts, then begin dance again with count 1 when musical phrase returns
