i loved watching this couple, they were so different then everyone else. also during this episode there was a younger couple who did a dance to a mix of different songs, one of which was "i like to move it move it" and they were crazy good. does anyone know if there was a video of them?

I love the Disney song and the dance was perfect. They did an awesome job and they should have won for this.
