I post this every few years, just to revel in its awfulness. It seems like exactly the sort of abomination one should blame American culture for, doesn't it? Nope. Tommy and the band are Danish.
2nd is definitely worse. I can find some laughter in the awfulness of the first one (I ask myself who he intended to make fun of... because that had to be the intention... right? Please tell me I'm right!)) The second one could nudge me toward censorship of that level of bad.
"I don't think you would conclude he was trying to make fun of anything here."
If not making fun of some awful stereotype in that video, does that mean that's how the Apache were seen in Denmark... Europe? Cochise and Geronimo not happy.

If you look at Tommy Seebach's other stuff, I don't think you would conclude he was trying to make fun of anything here.
From Wikipedia: "ended up with a status somewhere in between national heritage and kitsch clown"
"I don't think you would conclude he was trying to make fun of anything here."

Eh, I don't think I will
So he's considered the Danish version of Weird Al Yankovich?
Please, Weird Al had a talent for satire.
