Clear the aisles, launch this calypso dance number at your next pops event and watch the fun unfold. Everyone will remember this Harry Belafonte classic as the finale of the movie, Beetlejuice.
Once again Lady Gaga has struck a nerve with this driving and catchy blockbuster hit. This up-tempo rock arrangement is characterized by a syncopated, rhythmic pulse and tuneful melody.
