The Top 100 Songs You've (Probably) Never Heard - 2007

#87
Merhaba
Julie Lund
Denmark

Merhaba tells the story of a Danish girl who falls in love with a boy who emigrated from the Middle East (his family went to Denmark to find freedom and peace). The whole song seems to be an effort by the Danes to improve relations with Muslims after the cartoon debacle of a few years ago, but I have a feeling that, if anything, the painful rap section just made things worse.

Warning: this song is extremely catchy.
