Would you like this or find it unbearably cringe?

We have a friend with a birthday in a few weeks.

The number one song when he was born was ‘Cinderella Rockafella.’

As you’ve possibly guessed - if this was his birthday number one - he’s still a young lad and might be a bit shy and self conscious when it comes ti things like showy displays ! 🙌

His birthday’s at the beginning of March.

What my partner and I would love to do is an impromptu dance to this song when we all visit the local social club in a few weeks to celebrate his birthday.

I’m busy learning the exact lyrics for this song already!

i personally LOVE this song although some people apparently find it a bit twee

SO -

YANBU - it’s a lovely, gesture and great to take initiative at a time when most people are busy scrolling their phones and CBA to make an effort for anyone or anything!

YABU - ‘Cinderella Rockafella’ is a novelty record sung by seasoned performers and the ‘Average Joes’ of this world can’t carry off such a performance without it looking extremely naff!

Yes 57 in March

Dear Lord do not do this. Nobody wants to see it and it’s just cringey.

PSA: Unless you’re actually decent at proper dancing please don’t ever do an impromptu dance. It looks crap and the second hand embarrassment probably knocks a good six months off the life expectancy of your guests

I was born in 1962 and am currently... 62. How are people deciding he is 66?!

Not that 56 is a young lad!

Has the friend mentioned that this was an especially special song for him?🤔
What an odd idea, maybe if it was a song from his clubbing days or whatever, but a tune from the week he was born!

Omg, please don't do this.It's almost as cringy as a bride and groom learning a dance 😱

The lucky recipient..is 56🥳🤯🤣🤣🤣

I’m picturing the family in the Extras episode where Ashley Jensen is invited to hear her friend sing from Annie and her in the closet dad keeps shouting at her 😂

The only way this song & performance could possibly work is if he was a total extrovert, camp, cross-dresser who loved laughing at himself. So DO NOT DO IT.

oh god no!!!! so so cringe, make him the centre of attention and its an awful idea!

God, I’d die on the spot.

Omg I remember this !

Sorry your idea got rained on, and sorry to join in, but no, no, no! This is something you do at your own wedding or your own birthday- or you perform for your grandma’s 90th. But absolutely not for a shy, middle aged man who doesn’t like fuss! Bake him a cake or something.

Unbearably cringe. Sorry 😬

Just played the song. Makes this thread even funnier ffs. I've changed my mind, please do it and upload it here so we can all watch!

Absolutely terrible idea!

I agree with what everyone else has said - it’s just making someone else’s birthday about you.

God no!!

I’ve just listened to the song, how in the name of suffering Jesus can you dance to that?!

Scarlet for ya!

Wonder how many requests this has generated on YouTube this evening 😁

Just googled my own no 1 song

The Chicken Song by Spitting Image

I think if the birthday boy was the type to appreciate this sort of thing it would be blatantly obvious.

As it is not, he would probably die of second hand embarrassment as, no doubt, would others.

Please don’t do this

Didn't somebody say he was born in 57?

Frank Sinatra and Three Coins in a Fountain was no. 1 when I was born.

I am quite old. 😆

A great song from an excellent time in my life 🙌
