John Travolta recently posted a video of him and his son, Ben, on Instagram. The video was originally posted to Ben’s new Tik Tok account. Travolta is teaching his 9-year-old son how to do the “Greased Lightnin'” dance from Grease. In the video, you can see the two going over the dance moves together in slow-mo while Travolta is singing the lyrics.

It’s a pretty short video, but fans all over the world can’t get over how sweet it is! “Yesterday’s pre-birthday dance with Ben. Swipe up on my story for more of Ben’s TikTok videos,” Travolta writes in the caption.

“Greased Lightnin'” is arguably one of the most well-known songs from the hit musical movie Grease. The song would even peak at No. 47 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1978. The rock and roll number has undergone a lot of modifications for radio and TV play over the years as the song includes plentiful lyrics of sexual nature. While the modifications to the song ultimately make the song suitable for play, nothing beats the full, uncensored version that gets everyone excited for Greased Lightnin’!
