3. Come On Eileen- Dexys Midnight Runners
This song is an 80s classic and will be played at parties for any age for many years to come. The build-up in this song is what makes it so hard to resist, we start with a steady pace only for it to slow right down and work its way up to a crescendo with much anticipation.
Come On Eileen sounds a lot like a football song, with its repetitive chanting elements but can also be interpreted as a love song with a twist, with the lyrics depicting the lust for Eileen. This ambiguity and wide range will be what makes the song so appealing to such a variety of people. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oc-P8oDuS0Q
