File this one under: so bad, it's good. Or rather, pure absurdity. Remember Ukraine's ridiculous Eurovision entry from 2007? Here, m/watch?v=eX_rNEPIgc8" target="_blank">let me refresh your memory. Gocart System's debut single "Always been the same" is kind of like that -- totally inane and obnoxious, yet completely inescapable and unforgettable. Surf guitar over an oompa beat? Sure! Random gunshot samples? Why not? Hey, let's turn the chorus into chromatic polyrhythms! Sweet! Oh, and how about laying down a rap on one of the verses? Perfection! Total WTF accidental brilliance.
