Yes - Roundabout / To Be Continued
About
"Roundabout" is a 1971 progressive rock song by the British rock band Yes. Due to its heavy usage in the first two arcs of the popular manga-anime series Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, the song has been frequently used by JJBA fans in various Vine and YouTube remixes, along with the "to be continued" graphic logo featured in the manga-anime series, typically at the climax of the video for comedic and suspenseful effects.

Origin
"Roundabout"[1] was originally released in 1971 as the lead single of the British rock band Yes'[2] fourth studio album Fragile, which peaked at 14th place in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, though it gained much of its online popularity through its inclusion in the 2012 anime adaptation of the Japanese manga series Jojo's Bizarre Adventure [3].
In the anime, the song can be heard during the final few minutes of the "Phantom Blood"[4] and "Battle Tendency"[5] arcs to get the viewer hyped up for the next episode, before it was subsequently replaced by "Walk Like an Egyptian"[6] in "Stardust Crusaders"[7].
Spread
The earliest known usage of this meme stems from "Danksmash" remix of the Squidward Dab (shown below), which was uploaded to Vine on January 27th, 2016.
The Vine clip has over two million loops, which in turn led to the creation of derivative remixes based on Marge Krumping and Spoons Rattling, among others.
