French being technically my 2nd language (as a little one in Bruxelles), let's go with a very catchy song that features... some pretty hilarious French. XD
I've been organinizing my music files and this band albums in particular and I've heard this song many, many times while doing it.
The accoustic version I'm sharing is better known than the original rendition of the song and is almost an unoficial hymn to the country. It speaks of solitude, of courage and abandonment, of refusing to be small.
This one really had me thinking lately, especially since i discovered it very soon after the 4 year old daughter asked "what is war?" after overhearing a conversation.

Don't know about earworm, but for whatever reason Heavy Metal Perse - Paha Paavo (Heavy Metal Ass - Evil Paavo) has been stuck on my mind today.
