Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Smonster, how about "The Cup of Life" (La Copa de la Vida) which was the World Cup theme from ten or so years back? It's uplifting and actually sounds like a fun, party song. Ricky Martin did it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Can you teach them the Haka?
Let's see... 57 mostly white facilities' employees, mainly in their 40s and 50s, doing a Maori war dance appropriated by the New Zealand rugby team? Nothing about that says "cringe-inducing" to you?
Walkin on Sunshine?
Perhaps this is just an inherently bad idea.
