Semi-relevant story time!
A couple weeks ago I was watching a favorite Youtuber, 12Tone, deconstructing a song I wasn't aware of. During the intro he made a joke about trying to explain the song, then stopped, saying everyone already knew what the song was. I had no idea at all. So I went and listened to the song and looked up a bit more about it.
Due to some weird convergence of chance and Matrix-esque internet dodging that I didn't know I was doing, I somehow missed out on the phenomenon that was Mr. Brightside.
It's a really good song and I had the fortune to be one of that day's lucky 10,000.
Huh, and today I am a lucky 10,000. Had to google the song, never heard it. Thanks for you anecdote and my subsequent discovery!!
