Trope Workshop:Music, Dance Instructions Included

"One hop this time"

- "Cha Cha Slide"

A song that tells you how to dance to at least part of the song, almost always in the lyrics, but visual instructions in a music video also count. It is not necessary for the song to say how to do the entire (or even most of) the dance, even one visual aid (other than actual dancing of course) or line of lyrics that tell you how to dance is enough to qualify.

Movies

 * The Rocky Horror Picture Show has "The Time Warp" (the lyrics of which qualify on its own). In addition to the lyrics they have a picture that shows 2 dance steps -- the two easiest ones, of course.

Music

 * "The Time Warp": You bend your knees and thighs.
 * The lyrics to "Cha Cha Slide" are almost exclusively this trope.
 * The "Hokey Pokey" -- almost all the lyrics.
 * "Mambo No. 5": The second verse "Jump up and down, move it all around..."
 * "The Locomotion" by Little Eva.

Video Games

 * Every dance-themed Rhythm Game.
 * Foot-operated games such as Dance Dance Revolution and Pump It Up overlay dance instructions on top of the song's video that tell the player where to step when.
 * Just Dance has pictographs in the corner telling which way to swing the Wii Remote.

Web Original

 * And Now, a Word From Our Sponsors uses the song "Burger Dance (International Remix)" (which qualifies on its own). In addition, there are visual aids on how to dance (aside from 'dancers').
