On the second episode of Dancing with the Stars, the remaining eight celebrities will perform with their partner — and perform on a team. Since there are only eight celebrities, there are only two teams. There’s the Team 1950s Tennis team: Olympic luger Chris Mazdzer, NFL wide receiver Josh Norman, NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and figure skater Tonya Harding and their pro partners. The second team, Team 1970s Football comprises figure skaters Adam Rippon and Mirai Nagasu, NCAA basketball champ Arike Ogunbowale, and softball pitcher Jennie Finch Daigle, and their partners.

Team 1970s Football are dancing to the 1978 song “Instant Reply” by Dan Hartman. The opening line is “You set my lips on fire.” And if this song doesn’t get you up and dancing — or at least clapping or swaying in your chair, then something is wrong with you. While Hartman died too young (1994 at the age of 43), it’s nice to hear his legacy lives on. Dancing with the Stars airs Mondays at 8pm on ABC. Note: It’s important to vote — 2 couples will be eliminated at the end of the show!
