URGENT HELP NEEDED!!

Well I made it through my first television experience last night, and as expected it was hilarious and exhausting. I had to single handedly navigate through a 12 hour day of dealing with Chinese bureaucrats, television personalities, constant judgement, tremendously differing opinions on what looks and sounds good, and hordes upon hordes of devious little make-up covered children.

Yet I am alive to live and party another day. which brings me to my next thought...

Unfortunately I don't have any pictures yet so I'll wait to comment on the party until I can get a hold of them. But now I have more important issues with which I need people's help. In preparing for the party last night I got a text saying that next wednesday night there is another party that they want me to perform at, apparently the party in China just doesn't stop. The upcoming party is a welcome party for the new students of the University, and they have asked for me to perform a song. These parties are pretty big and I will be performing in front of anywhere from 500 to over 1000 students. I need input on what song I should sing in order to properly wow my Chinese hosts. I will post a poll on the sidebar. I hope some of the ten or so people that have stumbled across my blog can make it back, hell maybe even some new friends, in order to aid me in this most crucial of decisions. Obviously my poll will be limited so anyone who has any other song ideas please leave them in the comments area of this entry. I guarantee I will perform the most voted for song no matter what that may be(within reason, I won't perform any gravely offensive songs, i.e. I won't sing the theme from Team America World Police in front of a bunch of Chinese patriots, or "When I think about you I touch myself"), taken full in video on my digital camera and then later posted on this blog.

I should attempt to make a group of my students work for extra credit by following me around and singing Gunther to everyone as I enter the room, yet unfortunately the Chinese accent doesn't hold the raw sex of Gunther's Swedish accent
