I searched for

[suspicious]"the first easylistneing song"[/suspicious]

Which has a typo for sure but resulted in ONE result on Google ... ASTOUNDING!

Anyway what I was looking for was the 1968 "Love is Blue" by Paul Mauriat (Le Grand Orchestre de Paul Mauriat) which is considered one of the first or otherwise best known forerunners of "adult contemporary" / "easy listening" genres, I just couldn't remember the name (I ended up looking at the Billboard Hot 100 for 1968 and found it there)

I get zero occasionally. But i dont think that qualifies as googlewhacking.

Nice googlewhack.  I tried searching that with the quotation marks, didn't work, so I removed them, and yep!  One result!
Prayin' for a 20!

gcc thorin.c -pedantic -o Thorin
compile successful

So the original google whack doesn't google whack anymore.  But put the quotes around it, and now it becomes a google whack pointing to this very thread...

Hmm, that's interesting, I put the suspicious tag around it which I thought removed the text from bots
