Great song, and I look like a dork trying to do the dance.

I remember that and when the Twist was banned at high school dances. I remember the scandal when LBJ had a party at the White House and they were dancing the (gasp)TWIST!
Also it seemed a new dance craze was coming out ever few weeks for the next 8 years.

Mashed potatoes are kind of bland by themselves.

The Mashed Potato took a long, long list.
They even do it to "Dear Lady Twist"

Dear Lady Twist--Gary U. S. Bonds (1962)

Well now, the doctors agree, so I've been told,
Do the Twist and you'll never grow old.
