  • Here are some holiday-themed songs with 100 to 120 beats per minute for performing CPR: "I Am the Grinch" by Tyler, the Creator featuring Fletcher Jones (115 bpm) "El Burrito de Bel
  • n" (also known as "Mi Burrito Sabanero") by La Rondallita (105 bpm) "Happy Joyous Hanuka" by the Klezmatics (116 bpm)

The article from SFGate discusses the unique experience of walking through San Francisco's Union Square during the holiday season, where the festive atmosphere is enhanced by the rhythmic sounds of street performers. It highlights the presence of bucket drummers, who use plastic buckets, pots, and pans to create a lively, percussive soundtrack that resonates through the area. These musicians, often seen as both entertainers and a part of the city's cultural fabric, contribute to the holiday spirit by providing a backdrop of music that encourages shoppers and visitors to engage with the environment in a more rhythmic, almost dance-like manner. The piece captures the essence of this "rhythmic wonderland," where the spontaneous music not only entertains but also unites people in a shared, joyful experience amidst the holiday hustle.
