Here's my current case in point:
"Niemand heeft nog tijd" 1997
I listened to this song earlier in the week, and it hasn't left my brain, and I don't expect that it will for a good long while.
The group Mrs. Einstein was founded in 1989 and the high point for the group was 1997, when they were selected by the Dutch television service to represent their country at the Eurovision Song Contest with "Niemand heeft nog tigd", a song decrying the fact that modern life is keeping us too busy. Sadly, the song didn't do well, coming in 22nd in Dublin.
After the Eurovision song Contest, Mrs. Einstein continued to perform; however, many of the members in the clip above have left the group, with only two of the members still performing under the name.
Unfortunately, there's no really good information about the group out on the Internet, since their official website is currently down for a revamp. But Mrs. Einstein is still performing, and if you want to see them, the group is currently doing a cabaret show, which looks like it's coming to a Dutch town near you very soon.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go off and play the song over and over again. Maybe that will get it out of my head.
