Here is a band that is the very definition of "Guilty Pleasure:" Hurra Torpedo.
This band is a power trio that covers songs with kitchen appliances while wearing ill-fitting jogging suits. They come from Norway, where they went on a show that is apparently Norway's equivalent to SNL. They performed this song in 1995, and went on hiatus shortly after. About ten years later somebody uploaded the performance to the internet

They became popular worldwide shortly after the video's rediscovery (for a very limited value of "popular," and then they gained a new lease on life. Here are three other performances of theirs.
