i think it's such an endearing (and fitting) character trait that eiffel sings / hums / whistles to himself to calm himself down and distract himself from the crushing existential dread, but i'm kinda fascinated by his choice of song in the watchtower.

my gut feeling is that eiffel's "waiting restlessly in the calm before the storm" song should be "spanish ladies" à la jaws - also a traditional song that shouldn't have licensing complications? probably? - but that's a tangent. why "see me dance the polka"?

eiffel's repertoire of pop culture references is naturally full of these sort of... gabriel urbina-isms, but i don't usually find they stand out; they make sense through the combination of "growing up, eiffel watched a lot of old movies on tv instead of going to bed" and "eiffel is the kind of pop culture guy who likes things made by other pop culture guys and a lot of his references might be second- or third-hand."

and this isn't an exception, it's been referenced in other things. he could recognize it and have it rattling around in his brain somewhere. it's just that... what would remind him of this particular song, or why would he have had it recently stuck in his head? and, well, not to pigeonhole anyone, but... it feels more like a minkowski song? george grossmith was a comic contemporary and performer of gilbert & sullivan; he created the role of - most relevantly here - the major-general in pirates of penzance. and gabriel urbina is typically good at distinguishing these things; what songs wolf 359 can use, in any capacity, is obviously limited, but the theme from the great escape makes perfect sense for why eiffel would have it in mind during mayday (eiffel's "mental john williams discography" is also deeply endearing to me.)

i think you could make an argument that, by the time the watchtower is set, minkowski is confident enough to sing to herself more often, eiffel is listening to her enough to pick up on it, and maybe it's stuck in his head because it was stuck in her head and she was just singing it recently. ... that said, back to eiffel's secondhand references, i'm so sure there has been at least one time he's referenced an old movie musical or something minkowski likes, she's been like, wait, you've seen that? and he's gone, huh? i was quoting the simpsons.
