To the tune of the Weekend's Blinding Lights" This will lift your spirits and create joy! Points of joy and light indeed.

Joyful Garage Dad Dance With Two Adult Sons Go Viral | Time

Some believe that the most qualified leaders of movements are the reluctant ones. And, most certainly, it’s usually the most reluctant ones who have the best moves.

That is most definitely the case for a dad from Louisville, Ky. who is causing some good old Internet breakage thanks to his participation in a TikTok dance challenge.

It took some convincing to get the hammy patriarch of the McFarland family — the McFarlands, as they have dubbed themselves on TikTok — away from his screen and onto the world stage.

He’s reluctant at first. But then he comes to his senses and answers the call.
And oh, is this a dance. To the tune of The Weeknd’s hit “Blinding Lights,” the trio’s choreography is on point and their makeshift stage presence is through the roof.

Papa McFarland is giving you jubilant arms as he swims through the air. He is giving you footwork so fancy it’s your new workout plan. He is giving you Michelle Kwan-level confidence as he is lifted overhead by his sons.

Watch the set-up here:

I'm sending the link and telling them that their dad and I (70 year olds) are making a dance video outside of our garage and putting it on YouTube.

I was a community aerobics instructor in in the 80s and my kids resurrected one of my VHS taped homemade videos and had it digitized along with their childhood tapes as a gift.

My tiny grandkids got a real kick out of young grandma and started moving to it and my kids were blown away that i used ABBA in the 80s for the music ??

?????

Hahaha! But of course you used ABBA! What else would you use in the '80s?? Way to model fun and self-care, Grandma! I hope some day I get to be a grandma, and I will keep you in mind as the role model par excellence. Such a sweet image in my mind of dancing grandkids trying to keep up with you.
