Iko Iko

"Iko Iko" by Mardi Gras is featured on Just Dance 2 and Just Dance 3 (as a DLC).

Original
The dancer is a woman with pink hair. She has a tribal appearance, which includes a pink headdress with blue flowers, a pink, purple and blue two-piece fluffy outfit, and pink fluffy boots with purple straps. She wears several pink bracelets on her arms. She looks like a New Orleans carnival dancer.

Remake
The remake shows the dancer in a slightly darker color scheme. She is now presented with a thin blue outline, and her skirt has elements of dark blue and pink.

Original
The dance takes place in a rainforest background. Because of this, there is grass and plants growing around the dancer's feet when she dances. The floor is reflective.

Just Dance 3 (Xbox 360)
On Xbox 360 copies of the game, some grass plants are more visible and the floor is not reflective.

Remake
According to the files found from the code, the rainforest has been changed from green to bright blue. This may be because the background has been changed to night.

Gold Moves
There are 8 Gold Moves in this routine, all of which are the same: All Gold Moves: Spin your left hand in a clockwise direction and your right hand in a counter-clockwise direction at the same time and in rapid motion.

Trivia

 * The song is performed by Mardi Gras Indians. Its original title is Jock-A-Mo.
 * The song has some Native American words; this makes it the second bilingual song in the series, after Girls And Boys.
 * The song has a total of eight Gold Moves, being second only to Proud Mary and Ninja Re Bang Bang, which have nine Gold Moves each.
 * The DLC version on the Wii version of Just Dance 3 does not keep in rhythm with the song.
 * The pictogram sprite shows that one pictogram has some parts of the leg that have been cut out by mistake.
 * That pictogram is still used in the Just Dance 3 version, and in The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)’s, Dark Horse’s, and Never Can Say Goodbye’s Mashups.
 * In the pictogram sprite, a non-golden version of the Gold Move can be seen; this may mean that there will be four Gold Moves instead of eight in Just Dance Now.
 * In Just Dance Now, extra sounds effects that remind to jungle can be heard at the beginning.
