This one.

By the by, I'm not saying there' anything bad about "Rhiannon." It's just that it's not particularly, y'know, cool.

If you were on a date with someone, and "Rhiannon" came on, and they like, zoned out and said, "Shhh... listen," and who knows, maybe she's a tear or something, wouldn't you furrow your brow a bit?

In all fairness, I'd probably do that if anyone reacted that way to any song in mid-conversation. But the Seinfeld episode made fun of how seriously someone can take a song that has been SO thoroughly rammed down the throats of everyone on the fact of the earth for so long. Like, "Desperado" is corny and shit anyway, but someone reacting to it like it's their personal theme song... that's absurd.

This reminds me of something...

I have a co-worker who fancies himself a music buff of epic proportions. He always says stuff like, "I have a weird taste in music, I like really weird stuff," and then (because he's young and obnoxious) he'll sometimes treat us to a glimpse into his "weird" musical mindset, and play his Spotify playlist out loud. And every Fucking time... EVERY time... it's "In the Air Tonight" or "Hotel California" or "Bohemian Rhapsody." Like, songs that the rest of us have heard about once a week for the past twenty, thirty years. And of course, we laugh our asses off. He thinks we're laughing because he's not conforming to millennial music tastes, but we're really laughing because there's nothing weird or unique about liking those songs. I mean, most of us probably would never think to put on one of those songs at home, because they've just been pounded into us for so long, and we know, subconsciously, that they're going to be playing at the gas station or whatever, probably at some point within the week. So it's a bit ridiculous.

I guess my co-worker is sort of like that guy in the Seinfeld episode. He plays these songs, and we look at each other like, "what the fuck?" And it's hard to articulate, but... it's just silly.

"This one's for you" he'll tell someon, and then he'll play, like, "Come on Eileen" instead of something we haven't all heard millions upon millions of times.

"I don't know, I just have weird taste in music."
No, you just don't realize that you have the most normal taste in music of anyone I've ever met.

I cannot listen to that shity song "Lady In Red" because it reminds me of meeting a cute girl at a HS banquet/dance, laughing, dancing with her for TWO HOURS, and we had so much fun and the last song we danced to was Lady In Red and then she finished and said "Thanks, my boyfriend is here to pick me up!" and left. hahahhaha sad.

Hey, I also love that song. The organ (er whatever) solo is so weird and otherworldly. Makes the breakup in the song feel so epic. It's actually very haunting.

ok, so I still don't really understand the rules here, but I'll give it another try. And I'll do it with European songs. You will never hear them on the radio, and nor do I cuz I never listen to Dutch German or French radio anymore.

1. GERMAN:
Wir Sind Helden - Aurélie
love this song, the music fools you, lyrics are wonderful especially for German language.

2. FRENCH:
Les Rita Mitsouko - Marcia Baila
Best French band besides Serge Gainsbourg, this song reminds me of childhood holidays

3. DUTCH:
André Hazes - De Vlieger
when Dutch people are drunk, they sing Andre Hazes songs. Senior, that is. He's dead, Junior is a total douchbag (and his sister too btw) who's only famous because of his daddy

oh let me add one more, also Dutch but you should know this one:
Bettie Serveert - Palomine
even after hearing it a gazillion times, it still gives me the shivers
