歌名:Just Because 作詞:Joe Shelton,Sydney Robin and Bob Shelton 作曲:Joe Shelton,Sydney Robin and Bob Shelton 原唱:Nelstone’s Hawaiians合唱團( Hubert Nelson and James D. Touchstone) 舞名:Hitch-hiker Mixer 編舞:Jane A. Harris 中文舞名:東倒西歪 改編:張慶三老師,民國58年10月 土風舞音樂:惠美唱片F.D.C.第0013集,土風舞用的是演奏曲.
本舞出自於美國Dance A While一書(第六版),由Jane A. Harris所編,時間大約是在西元1960’年代,原文舞序因為我手上沒有這本書,所以沒辦法提供,還好張慶三老師已經把它翻譯成中文舞序,收錄在世界土風舞全集中(詳見下文老闆招待中文舞序的第二法).
至於音樂部份,只要比較輕鬆的2/4拍子的撲克或疊步舞曲都適用.張慶三老師則是有別於原舞的配曲,改用美國有撲克之王之稱的Frankie Yankovic於西元1948年改編的撲克舞曲Just Because.(原曲是由Nelstone’s Hawaiians合唱團成員Joe Shelton, Sydney Robin and Bob Shelton 於西元1929年出版的.因為Yankovic改編之後,馬上衝上當年流行排行榜集鄉村歌曲排行榜雙料前10名熱門歌曲,因而知名).本歌曲甚至紅到連貓王艾維斯˙普里斯萊都曾經翻唱過,收錄於西元1954年9月10日發行的唱片中.
