* Music fades out to a false finish at 3.25 which is a good place to finish the dance.

If you feel the need to dance the whole song out (5.06) to get your money's worth

(!!), just keep dancing at the same tempo during the pause and you'll get to the

start of the dance when the chorus kicks in again.
