Well, we forgot that this was a song a lot of Black people loved but had not made it to the mainstream (white people). We attended a PWI. The few Black people in the audience were jamming. Most of the white people were confused. I recall one white guy saying "I don't know what I'm watching...what is this."
My chapter's performance was followed by an NPC chapter doing a very cute performance of "Butterfly Kisses". The crowd went crazy. They recognized it and loved it.
Know your audience. My chapter's performance would've been a perfect display of sisterhood if done for a group of aspiring Deltas who were more likely to know the song and get the references.

Exactly this. And now I want to know what song you guys did!
BTW: Youtubed "Butterfly Kisses." Never heard of it! But yes, know your audience.
