DE: Dance, dance, work it baby

[bjornwilde]

In an effort to bring a smile to this week...

Something very wrong has happened to the evil karaoke machine. Its influence has spread and now those who get near are compelled to perform songs much like Spike TV's lip sync battles. For reference, here's Channing Tatum doing Beyoncé's Run The World (Youtube link). What song is your pup forced to perform to? How well do they do it? And, coercion aside, would they have fun?

And for bonus rounds, feel free to suggest songs to other muns!

Selina would do Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal and slay it. She'd also have a lot of fun doing it. (Although Neon Jungle's Trouble is damn tempting.)

Luidaeg is deciding to play along and says she would have fun with The Dresden Dolls' Girl Anachronism. She'd have fun with it but I am not too sure how comfortable the audience would be with her performance.

Izana is getting either White Town's Your Woman or Frank Sinatra's All of Me, though neither song has choreography. Izana would be very awkward and self conscious, not really being able to enjoy the experience.

Ahsoka (Assuming adult age here)...Taylor Swift's Bad Blood and no, she's not looking at anyone while she's singing it. (cough). A less breaky song would be Porcelain Black's One Woman Army.

Quinlan Vos gets another Taylor Swift, Shake It Off. I think he'd do well and give in to the fun. After words he'd be very confused.

Sam gets Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball cause I am mean and he'd have fun throwing himself into it, laughing his head off after words.

Hank gets Sia's Chandelier and despite himself, does an amazing job. After words he'd be self conscious as all hell but would be able to admit he had fun.

Amelia Heartstriker gets Katy Perry's I Kissed a Girl and would own it, likely flirting with any and all women present.

Rollo get's the YMCA's Macho Man, again, because I am mean. He'd be confused but if ladies in the audience were into it, he'd ham it up even more. How much fun he had would depend on audience reaction. Oh man, and Vanilla Ice's Ice, Ice Baby just popped into my head as a second.

Leaving Sabine...Queen's Princes of the Universe or Katy Perry's Fireworks, and despite the whole thing not following Imperial protocols, she'd have fun with it; though she'd have to work to loosen up at first.

Emcee would get Madonna's "Vogue" because I have had this in my head for a long time. He would kill it and have a blast. You know you can see it happening.

Honestly, I can't think of any song that he'd be embarrassed or uncomfortable performimg, so I'm not able to be mean to him. He'll go for anything.

[bjornwilde]

Yeah, I'm with you. I don't think any song would throw Emcee.

I always thought you had to be in like a five foot range to get caught by the machine.

Anyway.

Daniel would get What is the Meaning of Stonehenge? Funny enough one of my instructors had us watch this video to explain what archaeology is. Also, that video isn't safe for work or kids, but boy is it funny.

I have no idea for Tegid or Vala.

Naruto would get What Does the Fox Say.

Death and Jay all ready did Oh Death.

Funny thing about the Count is that all the songs I can think of for him he'd love. Then I found Stakes and Torches by Voltair. Ha!

Tass would get the Everlasting Love from the Katamari series, well that or the theme song. Of course he'd be miming rolling a Katamari.

I am still not sure about Wil.

[bjornwilde]

Interesting choices. I hadn't heard the Stonehenge song before.

And as to the five foot range, could be but we're bumping that up to allow more choreography. ; p

[dont_mention_the_tips]

There is something about a Kender that just screams Katamari Damaci.

My class was in stitches with that song. I mean it really does get to the gist of what a lot of archaeology is...

[have_no_mercy]

This actually happened in canon.

+1 =)

pfft what a great DE (and thank you for the entertaining mental images)

Bahorel totally gets Out Tonight from Rent. He would absolutely have a blast with it.(Really he'd have a blast with almost any song, though.)

Joly, I have noooo idea. How much fun he'd have would depend on how much alcohol he'd already had, and of course what the song was. Totally taking suggestions. XD

[bjornwilde]

Weird Science by Oingo Boingo?

[merryeccentricities]

oooh, yes!:D ​

[planerwayfarer]

Wayne Newton's Danke Schoen also occurred to me on my way home.

[merryeccentricities]

pfffft ​ That needs to be a group singalong, for sure. ​XD
