Don't you dare look back, unless it's to watch this Jeopardy! question from Monday night featuring Cincinnati-based band Walk the Moon.
"what is: omg we’re on @jeopardy!!" the band posted on Instagram Wednesday night, sharing a photo of the question: "Walk the Moon recounts a night at the disco: "I said, 'You're holding back', she said" this title."
The question came on Monday night's Double Jeopardy! round under the category "Walk the Line" for $400. Contestant Jake Garret buzzed in for the right answer, which was, of course, "Shut Up and Dance."
The photo was followed by a clip of the question and a very excited Eli Maiman, Walk the Moon's lead guitarist, yelling for the camera.
"Shut Up and Dance" was released on the Walk the Moon's third album Talking is Hard in 2014. Lead singer Nick Petricca says the song was inspired by a moment at a Los Angeles nightclub when his girlfriend asked him to dance and says it's an anthem of letting go and having fun. The song dominated the charts throughout 2015, hitting No. 1 on Billboard's Rock Airplay chart, No. 1 for 27 consecutive weeks on the Hot Rock Songs chart and topping out at No. 4 on the Hot 100 chart.
Unfortunately for contestant Jake, knowing this famous song didn't help him much. He finished second with $2,000 behind Melissa Klapper, who's currently on a hot streak winning three games in a row with a total of $59,100, according to Jeopardy!'s website.
