I've used Baby- Justin Bieber and Wonderwall - oasis but I'm racking my brains for an easy and interesting song for them  |

How old are they?
Are we talking Katy Perry "hot n cold" or the Sesame Street version of the same song?

| I use Weird Al in the classroom and the kids actually find it funny. Especially if we talk about or have the lyrics translated. I'd also recommend "My Cheeseburger" by Veggie Tales. There are other Veggie Tales songs that are incredibly funny as well. |

| Have them listen to Hi-5. It's terrible music, but it sounds close enough to K-pop that they might not realize it's made for eight year olds. |
