In essence, this dance is a nod to the region where I grew up, the Black Forest. It‘s famous for its „Cuckoo Clocks“, and the „Tick Tock“ figure reflects the movement of the hands of the clock; the clock then has to be wound up to make it go round again... Music Suggestion: Oh Whistle and I'll come tae ye, my lad (Muriel Johnstone's Scottish Dance Band) Alternatives: Bonnie Dundee (Sandy Legget), Two and two (Ron Kerr)

Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
