I don't know of any other song that references St. Vitus' Dance.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Jinx!

Black Sabbath and Bauhaus both have songs called "St Vitus dance". APP (at the peak -- or nadir -- of their adult-contemporariness) could use a little more shakin'

Jinx!

I figured someone would jinx that.

fwiw, I found a couple songs that reference it, one by Tom Waits & one by Alice Cooper, but not familiar with either one.  The Cooper tune is on Billion Dollar Babies, so I probably heard it at some point in college or high school.

VHM HL -- Hearing "Don't you Want Me" on the "urban" station in NYC was a major WTF moment in 1982.

BOS for Poltergeist.  That was really scary.  And when my buddies and I dropped acid at Stanford, it was playing at the Sunday Night Flicks.  We got halfway there before deciding that was a baaaaaad idea.  (As was taking acid on a Sunday before two mid-terms, but that's another story.)

Dale Bozio thinks she'll dye her hair blue.  And I'm pretty sure she eventually did.
