REPEAT

In its full form, the base dance for competition purposes
evolved into a 128-count, phrased line dance, with a
choreographed intro, a finale, plus variations and enhancements
for competition. In order to satisfy the many requests we have
received from dancers of all levels who wish to learn the steps,
we have decided to release two versions. The first (this one),
is a 64-count, intermediate dance called "Get A Thrill". Since
the song by Wylie and the Wild West has a uniform structure,
you still hit all the breaks as originally choreographed. The
second version, called "Get Another Thrill" is the complete
128-count dance, that fits perfectly to the music. A separate
step sheet is available for this version. "I Still Get A Thrill"
is fast, so you are advised to use two, progressive, learning
tracks before tackling the real thing.
