Love the sequencer programming on this.
I did notice he changed the chorus lyrics from "pole to pole" to "wall to wall". I wonder why.

I know that Ivan promotes a lot of different covers of the safety dance on his FB page, probably not any type of copyright issue.

Changing 3 words wouldn't get one past copyright anyway.
Maybe they thought wall to wall worked better with American audiences.
Pole to pole is more common in Britain to mean great breadth., than it is here.
