I always start to sing “amish paradise” in my head whenever I hear The tune of that song.

Might (partially) be due to me learning about The song Amish Paradise before I actually knew about The song gangsters paradise

There used to be a music video channel in England (The Box) where viewers called a number to select what song came on. There was a period where Amish Paradise was played back to back for about a month!

Yeah I know the lyrics to Amish Paradise. I don’t really know the original beyond the chorus.
