tell them that he did a really great cover of Alien Antfarm's Smooth Criminal
we can go a bit more modern! tell them he did a really great cover of The Weeknd's D.D.
imo it helps to have the cover be something old enough that the kid won't be familiar with either of them
this would get so much "what on earth are you talking about" response it'd be hilarious
i do not Entirely know that i am prepared to have her do the thriller dance nonstop for the next year
but it couldn't be That bad
Would you prefer that your child does the hammer slide for the next year? I'd take a hallway full of "hoo hoo!"s over most of the alternatives!
