And I've heard from some High School teachers I've stayed in contact with that MJ is as or more popular now than when they were in school.

Anyway, MJ sings backing vocals on this song. That may be enough to make it young and hip so the kids can put it on their walkmans and get giggy with it.


That ^ was the first song that came to mind also Tonic.

Then this single by Men At Work, Who Can It Be Now.


Sorry I couldnt think of a more recent one.

Any suggestions are welcome! Thanks in advance.
