the monkey
The Monkey is a novelty dance, most popular in 1963. The dance was popularized by two R&B records: Major Lance's "The Monkey Time", and The Miracles' "Mickey's Monkey", both released during the summer of 1963.
Characters in the anime series Overman King Gainer do the monkey in the opening animation and in the show itself. It is also featured in the Johnny Bravo cartoon series.
