8 second go kart that makes altered gassers seem tame and easy to control.
i dunno, seems like doing wheelies in a go kart might be a little too much. |

The evolution of a song. Waka Waka by Shakira was the official song of the World Cup in Johannesburg last year. It was a monster hit & viral on YouTube with over 300M views.
The Waka Waka part was based on a song by a Cameroon band called Golden Sounds. They dressed in spoof military costumes & the song was a regional hit after 1986. It moved across the ocean to Columbia & was a smash there as well. That is where Shakira & her producer were familiar with it. She recorded it & the producer felt it needed more African content for the World Cup. He enlisted Fab Dupont in NYC (a buddy) who just happened to be tracking new songs for a South African band called Freshlyground. He got the rough tracks & added some solo & background vocals. Their contribution is on the official Fifa video. I have a copy of his original mix btw which has more SA influence than the final release. There is also a Spanish version . . . Shakira's release of the Waka Waka song on her CD omits Freshlyground. The African version remains a very popular march song for bands, schools & the military in Central Africa. Ain't YouTube great? Ian

Nice find, John. Very reminiscent of UB40 . . . in a good way.
Here is a major new(er) talent hitting hard with a new release. You will be hearing a lot from this lady. Adele. She ain't your usual piece of marketed fluff. Man, she can sing. Turn on 1080p . . . Ian

This is being called: "The Worst Song Ever" It has gone viral & is now available on iTunes.
I always thought that was In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly . . . oh yeah, that was the worst recording of a song ever. Ian

I believe it is time for some silliness. How about the Lumberjack Song in German?
And as an added bonus, this NSFW gem: Sit on My Face Ian
