There’s one little TAG to get you smoothly through a 4 count silence in the track.
Start with the heavy beat, approx. 25 sec into the track.

5 - 6,Unwind ¼ to right bouncing both feet (5), repeat count 5 (6) (Weight ends on L). TAG COMES HERE ON WALL 10
7 & 8,Step R to right with a hip bump to right 7), Recover weight to L with a hip bump to left (&), Hitch R (8).
Start again.
TAG: when music faids away [just add 2 sways between unwind ½ turn (5-6) and Hip Bumps & Hitch (7&8)], TAG comes facing 6:00, at the end of wall 10 (and the wall starts facing 9:00)
Slow Sways RL, Hip Bumps RL, Hitch
1 - 2Step R to right with a sway to right,
3 - 4Sway to left,
5 & 6Hip bump to right, hip bump to left, Hitch R.
(The next verse starts with lyrics: “I’ve been dreamin’ ‘bout the west coast”, The beat comes back on the word “west” on count 1.)
OPTIONAL ENDING (counts 7 & 8), instead of Hip Bumps x2 RL & Hitch:
you can step R out to right side (7) and clap twice (& 8) (like the UFO does on the music video).
Have fun!
