The Tough Alliance-"Holiday"



This is just brilliant. Like most of my favorite things, it's both funny and beautiful. Sure, the dancing is laughable and the singing is amateurish, but listen to the song. The lyrics are about going on a holiday with someone special, and the music sounds like pure bliss. I also feel a sort of bittersweet vibe, like the person might know that their holiday will come to an end soon. Reminds me of another track from Sweden:



It's called "Never Content" and has that same sort of sentimental joy that "Holiday" has. The fellas from Gothenburg really know how to make a listener swoon.
