Tag: 4-beat tag* after 11th wall—this occurs when facing 3:00 after the part where the singer repeats himself several times (“rock your...rock your...rock your...” etc.)
[EZ TAG]
*You can anticipate this tag by listening for the change in the music. First, there is a long instrumental section. Then the vocalist begins to repeat himself (almost sounds like a record skipping). While this is happening, you will complete the 11th repetition of the dance to face 3:00. At this point, hold position and raise both arms slowly out to sides for 3 counts, then snap or clap on count 4 (on the “crash” in the music). Begin the dance again and enjoy the final two repetitions.
