If this works well, maybe you'll see us singing.

Today we are going to try something new, attaching video....

More with the music, on any normal day that you are walking you will suddenly hear a musical tune on the street and think, well at least I do, "Ohh, an ice cream truck". It's not an ice cream truck, it's a water truck that just drives around and sprays down the streets. These trucks play the "Happy Birthday" theme.
