"Acceptable in the 80s" by Calvin Harris is featured on Just Dance, Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of, Just Dance Unlimited, and Just Dance Now. It is also featured on Just Dance 3 as a downloadable track on the Xbox 360.
Appearance of the Dancer
The dancer is a woman with neon green curly hair with a small light blue bow. She is wearing large turquoise glasses, large blue earrings, a pair of turquoise fingerless gloves, a dark lime green loose off shoulder top, two white belts, dark green calf-length leggings, leg warmers, and peep toe heels. In every game after Just Dance, she has a slightly lighter color scheme.
Background
Just Dance
The background appears to be a purple wall with a lot of pink lines, and wires intersecting.
Just Dance 3/Greatest Hits (Xbox)
In the Xbox 360 version, the background changes a lot, from the typical purple wall and pink lines to a sky blue wall and diagonal aqua lines falling and more.
Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of (Wii)
In the Wii version of Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of, the lines are completely stationary, with faint streams of light flowing through them.
Remake
In the remake, the background is more similar to the Wii versions of Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of. The background is more zoomed out and forms with a weird, space-like noise; a similar noise is played at the end, when all the lines disappear quickly.
Gold Moves
From Just Dance 3 onward, there are 4 Gold Moves in this routine, all of which are the same:
All Gold Moves: Point forward with your right arm, one arm at a time, and with your left hand on your head.
