Comment on You can dance the Macarena to other songs besides the Macarena.

The dance is 16 beats, so it will technically work for almost any song with a 4/4 time signature. Numa numa, CBAT, Never Gonna Give You Up, Axel F, Do It To It, Get Schwifty; and the list could go on for ages. It’s the most common time signature out there.

Yeah. As a musician, I always think “well… yeah, of course” whenever I hear this. A set of four 4/4 bars is basically the most prevalent phrasing in popular Western music, and it has been the case for centuries at this point in time.
