An absolutely classic song..

[5487]

Im trying to think of a classic song for a school competition

Basically we have to have a ''pop group'' to recreate a classic song

by classic i mean
Lion King-Circle of life
Sister Act

songs that have the potential to bring goosebumps... or just get everyone eager to join in.

I rather fancied something less classic such as MGMT-KIDS
Or FUTUREHEADS-HOUNDS OF LOVE
because both songs are infectiously catchy
but definatly need more ideas...

please help!!!!

about 10-15 boys and girls singing/performing - to children of about the same age
(school years 7,8 and 9 - Comprehensive)
Religious song are allowed, as are modern
Anything is, basically...
As long as it has nothing too sexual ( for obvious reasons)
I just want something incredibly catchy

What about Mack the Knife? It's a great choral piece, good for clapping along to and with lyrics that are very relevant to the modern teenager.
