a Try Not to Sing Challenge, but with a twist.

- (FBE) For this episode, we surveyed the entire cast
to see what some of everyone's favorite songs were,
and we've included some of them in the episode.
- Oh, good! - (FBE) But since this
is Generations React, after each song,
we're going to see if you can correctly guess
which generation picked each song. - Oh no.
- Ohhh, sick. - That's gonna be so hard,
'cause you've got young people loving old music,
old people loving new music.
- (FBE) So, the rules are you can't sing,
but you also can't dance or move your head to the beat,
and you can't lip sync along to the music.
