I forgot all about this game. Glad to see it's still around

Okay...
This where a lot more fun than I expected it to be! xD
Why isn't this score higher? It's just great to mess with a real life person here. I was amazed at how many functions there were. Oh, and the backgrounds were amazing! You just got down all of the memes of this website so well. I also love all these songs.
I mean, you guys seriously chose some of the best Internet songs. There's a reason these are so popular. It was great to see all this familiar stuff. Uh, the songs are already stated while they're being played. I don't need to see the credits.
I'M SOOOO HAPPY HAPPY GO LUCKY MEEEE
I just go my way...living every day ;)
Holy shit, it's almost nine years later and I'm only just remembering the game that took Newgrounds by storm. This is fucking gold. The dance moves are great. The background is great. The track selection is great. This has a certain spontaneity to it that makes one give props for creativity.
I'm a little disappointed that each background is meant to match a song, but only up until a point... After that, the backgrounds just seem out of place. If the backgrounds and songs were a 1:1 ratio it would have felt a lot more polished, just as it would have felt more polished to have the video shown on some kind of TV in the middle of the screen instead of gracelessly superimposing it over the background. (Another minor problem is that the camera seems to have changed positions for certain clips, interfering with smoothness, though this is fairly minor considering there are THIRTY-ONE clips. Holy shit.) I would have also liked some kind of motivation to play with it for longer. Suppose what you have now is a sandbox mode. What if there were a rhythm-based typing game that coincidentally triggered the dance moves as you played?
