If I Had One Super Power...

I have very nerdy friends (this should surprise nobody). It stands to reason, then, that some nerdy discussions are taken somewhat seriously. The usual question, the hypothetical where if somebody had one superpower, what would that power be, has made my friends face-palm. Apparently, I have this tendency to not take advantage of a situation and get the most power out of it. Actually, in a lot of cases, I know that I do this. This is entirely intentional; I'm not interested in simply having power, and a lot of the typical powers seem to have lost their flavor with me. I need something interesting, with unconventional uses and unique potential, even if I don't end up at all powerful.

Which is why I've come up with this power a while back. If I had one super power, it would be to instigate, inspire, and lead people into bollywood-style song-and-dance numbers. Of course, it doesn't need to be bollywood. It could be any song. A more famous example of this is the T-Mobile commercial that reached millions. Why this, though, when anything at all could be possible?

A few reasons come to mind. First, it's awesome. Second, I have a background being a performer, and remembering how much fun that was makes me believe the power of performance would be super fun. Third, it's one of the few powers that wouldn't obviously be a power, and in a world without them, that's a vital attribute. Fourth, it can get you out of trouble. Fifth, it's an interesting power that needs to be used creatively for its greatest effect.
