"Mashed Potato Time" by Dee Dee Sharp is featured on Just Dance, Just Dance 3 (as a downloadable track exclusive to Xbox 360), Just Dance Now, Just Dance Unlimited, 舞力无限, and Just Dance+.
Appearance of the Dancer[]
Original[]
The dancer is a woman dressed like a 1950s housewife. She is wearing a polka dot hot pink and white dress with light blue ruffles on her sleeve, a light blue and white apron, a pair of light blue heels, and has pink short hair. She keeps her apron on before impatiently removing it at the end of the song and the choreography.
Remake[]
No visible differences are shown, except for the fact that the dancer looks more realistic, and that she is in a slightly lighter hue. Also, her outline has changed from violet to magenta. Her pumps are now light blue. Her hair has notably gotten darker.
Background[]
Just Dance[]
The routine takes place in front of a light blue animated curtain with many white dots and cherries on it, and a wine-red line at its bottom. If you look closely, you can notice that the curtain slightly moves a bit.
Just Dance 3[]
In this version, the curtain is replaced by a dark blue wall with several mirrors. The cherries are hanging on them and they sway to the beat of the song.
Remake[]
The background is the same from the Just Dance 3 version. However, the cherries now glow every beat, and the background is darker.
Gold Moves[]
There are 2 Gold Moves in this routine, both of which are the same; they are not available in Just Dance:
Both Gold Moves: Swing your right hand down as if to wipe away sweat.

Trivia[]
General[]
- Being released in 1962, Mashed Potato Time is the oldest song in Just Dance.
- Mashed Potato Time references The Lion Sleeps Tonight.
- Mashed Potato Time is referenced in Land Of 1000 Dances and If You Wanna Party.
- In Just Dance, the menu shows the title as Mashed Potato Time. However, the banner that appears before starting the routine reads "It’s Mashed Potato Time".
- Just Dance and Just Dance 3 have a lyric error: a line reads "Feel it in your feet now" instead of "Peel it to me now".
- This was fixed in the remake.

- In Just Dance Now, the first and third time "Hmm" is sung, it is not highlighted.
- Also, when "Peel it to me now" is sung, "now" is not highlighted, despite still being sung.
Routine[]
- Mashed Potato Time is the only map in Just Dance with a difficulty rating and an effort rating of 1.
- The Just Dance version of the map has 26 pictograms, making Mashed Potato Time the routine with the lowest pictogram count in the original Just Dance game.
- However, the Just Dance 3 version only has 20, making it the map with the lowest pictogram count in Just Dance 3 and the entire series.
- With only eight unique pictograms, the Just Dance 3 version of Mashed Potato Time has the lowest number of unique pictograms in the entire series.
- The following activities are shown by the pictograms: vacuuming, holding a baby, cleaning the dishes, cleaning the windows, being tired, cooking, sweating, and peeling potatoes.
- In the Just Dance menu icon, the coach’s hair and dress are hot pink, and her apron has hot pink lines on it (instead of white ones).
- The "classifiers" folder in the files of Just Dance has two folders for Mashed Potato Time, one labeled "Potato" and another one labeled "Copie de Potato".[3]
- On December 16, 2009, Just Dance’s official US channel posted a short video of YouTubers SecretTrois dancing to Mashed Potato Time in Just Dance.
- In Just Dance, the apron disappears after the coach throws it away; in later games, it remains visible, but it is notably stopped by an invisible wall.
- When Mashed Potato Time was first released in Just Dance Now, it was mistakenly placed between Party Rock Anthem and Pound The Alarm for a long time, due to its codename being "Potato".
- The Just Dance Unlimited album coach has the white fade at the bottom that is seen in all of the Just Dance 2014 and Just Dance 2015 album coaches.
