Once more:
There are many awards for his funk-jazz-american music and videos like Sledgehammer,Big Time and so on.That is really good dance music with an ironic undertone - so Peter should not feel blamed,if they play it, when he appears- he should show a Victory-V.
Better dancing two rounds Sledgehammer with circeling hips than eating 2 cakes. That's a good circle-training for this winter and a kind of worlddancing - in opposite to stockfish-dancing!
PS: At the Princes-Gala it was a bit overdone, now Phil Colins always does his goating.(Sorry, Phil, I have to crawl a bit.)
