It was nothing choreographed. I sent him a link to it, and he liked it. We didn't practice anything, just kind of ad libbed as we went along.

I picked it because he was something of a free spirit and rebel as a little boy. The line "...and the devil would call my name" seemed quite appropriate. We got several compliments on it.

He's 33 now, and he and his delightful 31 yr old wife are expecting their first baby in August - a boy, and the prenatal genetic testing showed no major anomalies.
