"The Clapping Song" (Shirley Ellis)

Sort of a graphic song if you think about it, but then again, many kids' songs are ("The steamboat went to Heaven, Miss Suzy went to Hell...")

"Dancing With the Stars" did a group dance to this song, which had plenty more hilarious '60s dance moves (which I secretly love, by the way. I wish I grew up then. Then I'd actually be considered a GOOD dancer).

0:00 - More human bells!

0:23 - You'll be seeing these ladies convulsing throughout the song and wiggling their rears like no tomorrow. Bet it burns a lot of calories. Maybe if people still danced like that, we wouldn't have an obesity epidemic.

2:03 - Way to NOT DO ANY OF THE THINGS SHIRLEY IS SINGING ABOUT.

2:04 - This reminds me of the dancing from "A Charlie Brown Christmas." Well, both WERE 1965.

"A Sign of the Times" (Petula Clark)

Poor Petula Clark is the only one who retains some dignity in this, mercifully restraining from the ridiculous backup dancing going on behind her (indeed a sign of the times- great song, though.). These poor souls have no idea what to do with cars, as one lady (attempting to drive said car by sitting on the trunk and steering in the air) is oblivious to the fact that she has run over another dancer, who is desperately trying to get out from under the car (while grasping for help to the beat of the music, of course).

Two mod-clad passers-by completely ignore his plight and continue to butt-bob away. Meanwhile, Petula rides in on the hood of a car.

0:28 - That is one groovy colored-square pantsuit.

A male dancer decides to take matters into his own hands and abducts the air-steering lady, who continues to happily steer her invisible car, even waving to Petula as she is carried away. Clearly a commentary on the true sadness of insanity.

0:35 - Man reenacts climbing a ladder underwater, gives up, and drowns. In style!

1:26 - DANCE BREAK!

1:37 - A hat attempts to run away from the incessant shoulder-rolling. It gets a starring role in 1:54 and in the finale.

2:02 - Human bells.

2:35 - Man attempts suicide by throwing himself under the car again. The girl on the hood just snaps her fingers to the catchy tune.

2:38 - "Hi Grandma! I'm on TV! Look up my skirt!"

2:53 - Man in red prays he'll never have to do this again.
