"Beat It (Demo)" by Michael Jackson
Your favorite demo or unreleased version of a song.
My favorite part of the song is when they argue about the headphones being too loud and someone yells then take them off!

"Pour Some Sugar On Me" by Def Leppard
If you were a professional athlete, what is your walk up or intro song?
I've been asked this in the past on what my intro music would be if I was a professional wrestler and what my name would be.
This would be my song and my name would be CHOCOLATE THUNDER!!

"Ms. Jackson" by Outkast
A song from the 2000s that you like or means something to you.
I remember people yelling I am for REEEEEEEAL
quite a bit when the song came out.

"Virtual Insanity" by Jamiroquai
A song from your teenage years.
This was the song that introduced me to Jamiroquai and really solidified my love of funk and disco.
It's crazy how this chorus still applies as I learn more and more how crazy this world is.
Futures made of virtual insanity, now Always seem to be governed by this love we have For useless twisting of our new technology Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live underground, whoa
Couple this with an awesome music video and you have pure magic.

"Hey Baby (Drop It to the Floor) [feat. T-Pain]" by Pitbull
A song from your most listened to artist of the last 20 years.
Looking at the number of plays in Apple Music, this one is in the top 25. In my home, the chorus is a bit of a call and response as one person will say the the "oh baby baby" and someone else will do the "la la la la la" part.

"Just Kickin' It" by Xscape
A song from the 1990s that you like or means something to you.
I think this song came to me because I need some time to reset.
Kick off your shoes and relax your feet (Come on, yeah) Party on down to the Xscape beat, just kick it (Oh, baby)
It's been crazy the last couple of months.

My wife knows someone from the band. It was really nice to see someone play something live.
