In some cases, a program - or advertisement - will show someone dancing by themselves. Typically this is a person doing a side-to-side move but depending on how well they do, it could be quite good. (Note that the music video of the eponymous song [[LyricsVideoMismatch shows Billy Idol fighting off zombies, and holding onto a transformer and shooting electricity at them]], but he never dances.) Compare EverythingHasRhythm when a character dances with a prop.

* ''Film/HighRisk'' has an example that overlaps with SoundtrackDissonance, as the DarkActionGirl henchwoman kills off the staff in a surveillance room to facilitate a terrorist takeover in a hotel. The henchwoman then flicks on a radio playing classical ballroom music, and starts an impromptu tapdance by herself ''in a room containing the corpses of guards she killed'', while the scene is inter-cut with several terrorists slaughtering the staff in the hotel's lobby.

** In the episode "Reunited", Garnet dances by herself after Ruby and Sapphire [[spoiler: get married]]. Garnet is their [[FusionDance fusion]], however, so jury's out on whether or not she counts as two people.
** In "Change Your Mind", [[spoiler: Steven's gem gets removed from his body and reforms into [[LiteralSplitPersonality Pink Steven]]. The two of them fuse back together by dancing and CryLaughing. This example is a lot less ambiguous than the above, since the two Stevens are two halves of one whole and cannot live without eachother.]]
