So You Think You Can Dance To Junior Boys?

Reader Andrea wrote in this afternoon to sent us an awesomely phrased tip...

I feel like I should justify myself first and say that I normally DO NOT watch So You Think You Can Dance, but in a moment of weakness last night I found myself sitting there doing so ... Fast forward to 50 seconds.
Don't worry Andrea, had we stumbled upon this sweet little find ourselves, we would have prefaced it exactly the same way (wink emoticon). Sure enough, :50 in we see SYTYCD contestants Pasha and Lacey doing a geek-meets-the-robot dance routine to the trickling electro pop of So This Is Goodbye standout "In the Morning." Here's hoping for a Strawberry jam next! Yes, we think you can dance to "Derek." Thanks Andrea!

I predict that same group will use 13 Monsters for their next dance.

for the record, SYTYCD is a fun show and they often pick good tracks to dance to. you can knock participatory television but it's not like you don't love to comment on blogs. hipster hypocrisy.

It was one of the better routines, actually. Some of them are hella lame.
