Ironically the very same thing that when I was a child and teenage in the late 60's and 70's the old timers got very upset about when Pentecostal young people did the same thing. (remember when you found out you could sing Amazing Grace to the tune of the Coca Cola jingle "I'd like to teach the world to sing"? LOL)

LOL! I was singing Oh Danny Boy on the way to work this morning!
