What's a song you'd want your best friend to hear for the first time?

It's not a bad song, but I think it's funny when people know where I first heard it.

I was living with a host family in a culture with strict gender roles (men go out and work, women stay home with the children, men drive but women rarely do, men should be strong and women should be softer, etc). I first heard this in my host dad's car as he was driving me from the regional town to our village. He didn't know any English, so I'm sure part of it is that he didn't understand what Lian Ross was saying, but the contrast between my host dad being a "big, strong man" and listening to this in his car didn't go unnoticed. (I'm not saying that you have to stay within strict gender roles if your culture has them! It was just unexpected for me 🙂)
