Lady Gaga’s “Bloody Mary,” with its intriguingly eerie intro melody, really leaves an impression.

The song’s simple chorus repeats the phrase “dance, dance, dance,” making it easy for people who aren’t confident in English to get excited and join in.

Also, the “Bloody Mary (TikTok Remix),” which gained popularity on TikTok, is sped up just enough to work perfectly as a dance track—highly recommended.

It could be fun to hype the crowd with the original first, then switch to the remix version and ramp it up into a more intense dance!

Even though it’s over a decade old, it doesn’t feel that dated.

Just one step left before confessing.

This is a song that portrays the feelings of real, everyday girls.
