Do the dance at 12:00, 3, 6, tag @ 9, dance at 9, 12, 3, tag @ 6, dance at 6, 9,
then tag repeat to end of song! You will be facing 12:00!
Tag is easy as it's done on the CHORUS when he sings "It's overload"...
This is a "feel good" number which hopefully will enable you to be uninhibited about trying some
"raunchy" moves! Good Luck and I hope you enjoy this as much as I do! The music is divine!

This dance is dedicated to three special ladies, who ALL loved this dance, thank you!

CLAUDETTE, Tks for being there for me from day one and for STILL being there! Your loyalty,
enthusiasm, encouragement and friendship mean the world to me, thank you my little friend!

My dear friend WENDY, who has always been so loyal, encouraging and supportive of my dance class
and complimentary about my line dance teaching methods. Thanks for having so much faith in me
Wendz, and encouraging me never to give up, no matter how hard the challenges were... Thanks for
always being there for me!

Also to my friend CAZ BEHRMAN, for being such an inspiration by showing so much faith and
enthusiasm in my class. Thanks too, for the encouragement and moral support when I really needed
it! Thanks for all your help with researching dances to teach and obtaining the music to make it
happen!

Bee
