I really shouldn't be surprised that the two-year-old's favourite song in the entire world is this Jarvis banger from last year, which she demands to hear at least once a day. It always gets her bum moving.
I'm probably a bad parent and should be feeding her proper kids music - there are certainly plenty of options - but she likes big beats and thumping bass, just like her old man, so we have regular dance parties around the house. And I'm just letting the kid like what she likes, and what can I say? She likes the Cocker.
I think it's mainly the dancing. It's a terrific tune, zapping the zeitgeist with a punchy hook and the faint smell of complete despair that we're all familiar with, but it's the video with Jarvis getting down that appeals to young and old.
The man can still kick like no other pop star, and he's still doing it in neon silhouette, all around the living room.
The kid's tastes are usually more age-appropriate - Sarah and Duck is hands down her favourite TV show, which is good, because Sarah and Duck is fucking great. I'm just saying that there is room for some Common People in her life.
At least it's not the fucking Wiggles.
