(What is horrifying to me is that if you turn on a German or Austrian television channel, you risk finding an identical show even in the year 2016.)

Any excuse for lederhosen, dirndl skirts, and Swiss waists I guess.

Yuck. I always hated that bouncy song, but never knew what it meant. A few years ago a Mexican friend asked me to translate it, so that was the first time I ever really listened to it. Surprise!

This song is so hokey it's nauseating, but I was thinking it would be perfect for this category, then forgot about it. However, today in the supermarket I heard the Spanish version, which prompted me to share this undying classic with you all. 4. The Last Kiss -- J. Frank Wilson & the Cavaliers 4. El Ultimo Beso -- Los Doltons

7. Mourir d'Aimer - Charles Aznavour
"To die of love" was the theme song of a movie (true story) about a high school student who fell in love with his teacher. After numerous legal complications, she committed suicide. Interestingly enough, the current prime minister of France Manuel Valls married his theatre teacher from high school and she is more than 20 years older than him.
