Omi — “Cheerleader” (Felix Jaehn Remix) (2014)
It’s hard to believe that we’re coming up to seven years since this song first hit the airwaves. Most people might have complained that it was generic, but after a couple of shots in the club, everybody was dancing to it at the time. We can’t give full credit to Omi for creating this catchy tune that had everybody humming all day. Producer Felix Jaehn did his thing on the original to give it widespread mainstream appeal after all.
The Champs — “Tequila” (1958)
Any song about tequila is going to guarantee you a headache the first time you hear it. The Champs knew that they were creating a karaoke classic when they first released “Tequila” back in 1958, but they probably couldn’t have imagined that people would still be performing it at their birthday parties nearly 65 years later. If you’re wondering why it made the list, try listening to the song while you’re sober. We promise that the earworm effect is a little better when doing this.
