SEATTLE — Police departments across the country have been making lip-syncing videos and challenging others to do so. Now it’s the Seattle Police Department’s chance under the spotlight. The Norfolk Police Department in Virginia recently challenged them at the end of their viral version of Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk.”

The Seattle Police Department has accepted the challenge. Since then, a flood of song suggestions have come from Seattle (including from MyNorthwest's Dyer Oxley). Here are a few inspired choices taken from social media and MyNorthwest.

“Singing in the Rain” by Gene Kelly

“My Hero” by Foo Fighters

Anything by Mariah Carey!

One person actually just wrote “anything by Mariah Carey!”

“Can’t Hold Us” by Macklemore

There were multiple recommendations for Seattle hip hop artist Macklemore from “Can’t Hold Us” to “Downtown.”
