    I'm 15, live in Canada, and know the song. How? I heard the cover by Laibach. I downloaded the original, just to see what it was like. Also, I'm pretty sure that it's in the show "Arrested Developement" as one of the character's theme-song.

    I'm 34 and that song plagued many a part in the eighties. Terrible, but somehov the fact that you can sing along makes it great (na-na-nana-FINAL COUNTDOWN-nananana-nanananana-etc.) - or not.
    Nope - no sig what so ever.
