==Background==
The routine takes place on The Big A, where Mr. Overload is seen at the rooftop of a building with a city seen behind. There are neon signs, lit buildings, and several other structures. Lasers, a Godzilla-like monster, fighter jets, the Titanic, numerous giant robots, UFOs, and meteorites are also visible in the background. During the bridge, the moon turns out to be a distress signal with a mask and moves around temporarily. Which he seems to notice, and all the problems disappear before more appear after the bridge. A sign in the background reads "SOUNDS", but the letters U, N, and D are flickering so "SOS" is read instead. There is also a sign at the very far back into the background that says "JUST DANCE" which resembles the Hollywood sign.
