The 100 Greatest Songs You've (Probably) Never Heard – 2011

#92

Emma
Christopher Brandt
Denmark

According to his official bio, Christopher was a professional ice hockey player for 11 years whose love of singing was rekindled while singing the Danish national anthem at a hockey tournament. “Emma” is a love song performed from the point-of-view of the singer. It seems Christopher had a little too much to drink last night and forgot to come home to Emma, whom he says he loves. The song is more or less a plea for forgiveness peppered with excuses and swearing.
