The choreography is competitive rather than synchronised. Each dancer answers the last one, which is why the video rewards rewatching in a way that set-piece routines do not.
Sitya Loss
The Ugandan singer Eddy Kenzo's song, carried worldwide by the video's dancers: four boys — Alex Ssempijja, Fred and Isaac Tumusiime, Bashir Lubega — and a girl, Patricia Nabakooza, improvising against each other. The record's entry for a music video whose credited artist is not who most viewers came for.

The children are named in the record: Alex Ssempijja, Fred and Isaac Tumusiime, Bashir Lubega and Patricia Nabakooza. Reposts almost never carry the names, and often not the singer's either.
