"Black-eyed teeth" is a riddle made up by geyser after listening to Drifting by Recoil.

Unless mentioned otherwise, I=me=geyser in the stuff below.
Please use the talk page for guesses etc.

Hints

Biggest hint so far
It's a crucial element of Western culture ^_^
"Random" music videos etc

Those are just things off the top of my (geyser's) head

which refer to the answer in some way or other.
More or less deliberately misleading...

I Don't Feel like Dancin'

This song features multiple more or less direct references to the riddle's solution, intertwined with the song/video's own trivia.

Notably, the solution is explicitly mentioned in the song's lyrics and appears several times in the video (see link above).
