Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Tina decided that she would get them started with an old Rolling Stones' classic. She had to giggle when her mother started dancing the Pony and her friends all followed suit. It was actually what she'd hoped would happen, as the dance fit in with the name of the song and was a good way to get their heart rate to increase. What song "couldn't drag them away" from the dance?
2. The next song Tina chose for the dancercise workout was one by Survivor that was popular in such workouts. It kept the pace up and had the women practicing fancy footwork and throwing pretend punches, as if they were involved in a boxing match. Which song made them feel like they were involved in "the thrill of the fight"?
3. For the next song Tina wanted to slow down the women's heart rates a little, so she chose a Simon and Garfunkel number that was a little more mellow. She was amused to see that, even though they kept moving, the women were more inclined to sing along at the slower pace. What song had them singing the lyrics "kindly but they're dumb"?
4. Concerned about the fact that most of the group were beginners, Tina wanted to keep the pace at a moderate speed. She chose another sing-along classic by The Irish Rovers that encouraged whole body movements to go along with the lyrics. What song had the dancercisers making animals movements for "humpty backed camels" followed by exaggeratedly scratching their armpits?
5. Next on the list for the dancercise workout was a classic by The Beatles with some pretty bizarre lyrics. Which song had the group strangely chanting "Goo goo g'joob, g'goo goo g'joob g'goo"?
6. Seeing how much fun the ladies were having singing along, Tina was glad that she'd chosen the next song. The familiar lyrics from Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young had them singing along while the folky music slowed down the pace a little bit more. What song had the women singing about how "life used to be so hard" and a "very, very, very fine house"?
7. The next song Tina chose was a bluesy number by Three Dog Night. It too had a slower pace that had the women singing lyrics like "play something I can sink my teeth in like Jello" and "just let me lay back and grin like a ...". The song turned out to work better than expected when the women began dancing in unison, swinging their arms up and down and bouncing up and down in time with the rhythm of their arm. What song's lyrics reminded the women of the old 60s dance The Monkey?
8. The next song was another one that had the women more interested in singing along than in dancing, so Tina had to encourage them to keep their legs and arms moving. A hit for The Tokens in 1961, what song had the women singing the line "Hush my darling, don't fear my darling" along with the catchy chorus of the repeated "awimbawe"?
9. Getting close to the end of the routine, Tina decided to get the pace moving again. For this she chose a classic by Three Dog Night, arguably their biggest hit. What song got the women moving again, especially in the catchy chorus, but still had them singing out lyrics like "I never understood a single word he said, but I helped him drink his wine"?
10. It was time for the cool down at the end of the workout, so Tina slowed things right down with the last song. She encouraged the ladies to sway their bodies and arms slowly, like waves on the sea. They were obviously tired but not too tired to sing along to with soothing lyrics like "the albatross and the whale they are my brother". What song, by Little River Band, was this?
