REPEAT

TAG
When performed to "The Tide Is High" by Blondie, there is a 40-count break after the 4th repetition (facing the starting wall). There are also 4-count tags after the 2nd and 3d repetitions and at the end of the 40-count break. The 4-count tag is easy to hear in the music if you listen for the lyric that simply keeps repeating the phrase "Number one, number one, ..." (This occurs three times in the song)
