I learned about this baffling phenomenon while listening to Australian radio. Apparently, in public school or something, everyone in the country learned some choreographed dance to “Nutbush City Limits” by Ike & Tina Turner. And no one seems to know where it came from.
Some sort of country-wide meme. Reminds me something Justin Pickard (I think) said about nationalism being merely a set of in-jokes.
TIL Nutbush City Limits was not originally recorded by Bob Seger!
