The 100 Day Song Challenge: Days 4 - 7

Day 4: A song you can remember your parents listening to.

This is hard, because my mother and father listened to different kids of music, not to mention my mother was blasting Russian classical music from time to time. But I guess this is where I start with the culturally diverse answers. Here we go, heavy Russian artillery:

Тонкий шрам на любимой попе / Андрей Макаревич + Максим Леонидов

God, where do I even begin to describe this? This song is called "a thin scar on a beloved butt" and is about how a man passionately, and in a somewhat intelligent humor describes his beloved woman´s behind, and it having a tempting little scar on the left cheek.

If this isn´t enough for you, and the fact that I as a little girl was forced to hear this song in the car almost all the time, then maybe the horrific video will make your day.
Funny enough, the two musicians who sing the song are actually well respected in Russia, one of them having a pretty good jazz-like band called The Time Machine, which always were a huge family favorite.

But this is just the tip of the great Russian iceberg, I assure you.

Day 5: A song a friend likes but you don´t.

Try and dig up something that Boris likes and I don´t. There is not a lot of music which we disagree on, except for the occasional unknown post punk bands that I like putting on a loop and Boris can´t determine their significance. 

Jaques Brel - Amsterdam

Boris loves French chansons, he adores them! It´s not that I really dislike Brel or his songs, but I really don´t have a lot of patience for them, and sometimes they annoy me. Maybe it´s because this is another genre my mother used to blast in the kitchen, and it gets on my nerves ever since. I do love Brel´s emotional expression to each of his songs, it is really unforgettable.

Day 6: a novelty song.

Time to jump into the multi cultural pool again, and I can´t help but bring another Russian classic here. It was one of my favorite songs as a kid (still is) and probably plays the same role for many Russian people as well. This song was also a huge hit at the time, and has reached a cult height, if I do say so myself:
