The party favorite is Adriano Celentano's 'Prisencolinensinainciusol,' known for its humorous mock English lyrics. Punk bands that once inspired have since lost their appeal.

Singing at home includes 'Tinseltown in the Rain,' while '500 Miles' evokes emotional responses centered on loss and longing.
