Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.

Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?

Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

No no no Kinetic Strike and Battle Rhythm are special moves in a Japanese fighting game where all the characters are winsome school girls with pastel hair
No no no Kinetic Strike and Battle Rhythm were unsuccessful attempts to knock off Dance Dance Revolution for the "manly" Wii players.
Kenetic Strike (2002) and Battle Rhythm (2009) are action movies you keep scrolling past on Tubi and almost but not quite pull the trigger on.

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?
