Some Italian Music. It's changed a lot since Dean Martin.

 These two songs alone have bombarded Europe, everyone knows what I'm talking about when I've asked if they've heard them.  They are both super weird, but we are all opening ourselves to new experiences and embracing the different European cultures.  For instance,  yesterday I ate mushrooms,  today I made pesto pasta with bell peppers in it.  We are stretching our taste buds and getting used to the fact that we have to lick postal stamps and pay to use the bathroom.  I didn't know I had it so lucky in America where I had the luxuries of having both an oven and an iron in my dorm.  But hey I do have some European perks here,  we are all afraid to use the bidets in our bathrooms, but mine does get used when I fill it up with soapy water to mop my bathroom.
So here are the songs that you WILL become addicted too...at least if you've heard them 100 times...

 1.  "We No Speak Americano"... This has played so many times in the clubs with remixes and we are all going crazy from it...
