TAG FOR "BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ" BY HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS
The 16 count tag should be done twice. The first time is 32 counts into the song (16 counts prior to vocals). Additionally, there is one distinct instrumental break in which the last 16 counts before the vocals begin again and are identical to the 16 beats prior to the vocals at the beginning of the song. This occurs at the end of wall 6. The tag should be repeated again at this point before beginning the dance again
