Many of you probably know this song since it was used in a commercial.
It has a bright, upbeat melody, and the lyrics are wonderful.
Dancing with a large group creates impact and will definitely liven things up.
You can dance with your own original choreography, or try copying the AI backup dancers’ moves you’ve seen on TV, and that would be great too.
