I'd flame you for that, if I didn't like it so much

Loved the squirrel at the end.

To be honest I create some playlists and let if play, I really love music - any kind of music. But this one is an uncontrollable swing.

I used to teach dance, Fernando - ballroom and disco. As far as moving to it - it's got that going for it. I'll admit that.

Now thats a definition I agree with, at least the bold part ^^. This was a hit in UK some years ago, one wonder hit - yes, but the track has something amusing/funny/groovy I really love.

It's the kind of tracks most people hate, yet, it's so damn amusing they buy their records when no one is watching. :p

Funny... Never EVER heard this track in a Club - dj's hate it cause it sounds kidisshhhh. And you guys wouldn't want to see my poor dance skills.

That would turn me into a banned member in a split second. lol

Yeah, it wasn't in the bars or clubs, but it was on one or two of the pop stations here in Texas for a bit.

I now recant my statement about burning. You are burned. You have put this song in my head and it will not go away. I will have justice. (Pulls off glove and throws at your feet) I challenge you sir, to one on one combat. Your choice of venue. My choice of dance moves.

And here is the original...

YouTube - ‪The Rivingtons - Papa Oom Mow...

It doesn't have the same grittiness as the Trashmen remake, but it stands on its own merits.

As for the point made in the OP, I do my best to not cut down other forms of music, or other's taste in music. For example, a lot of people say things like "rap isn't music" or that "[INSERT NAME OF ARTIST] sicks!", but I always remember this paraphrased Bob Dylan lyric...

And don't criticize what you don't understand

Music is a subjective thing, and what I like will be different from what you like.

Personally, I like most forms of rock and roll from the 1950s to today. Doo wop, British invasion, garage, protopunk, psychedelic, folk, classic rock, disco, punk, new wave, grunge, alternative and so on.

It's all good.

Rock on!
Michael

I couldn't agree more.
Also I've been finding more and more that the journey to the music can often times be as interesting as the music itself.
I was lead to this song from a thread in an Irish sessions forum.
Through a bunch of fascinating research I learned the group and song are from the Cataluna region of Spain. I stopped playing it as much when I learned the song is a prayer for rain

Thom, thanks for that. Quite impressive the interaction between popular/traditional music and old school singing with a synthesizer/sampler. Funny how music goes around in circles and what was "out of date" soon picks up again with a mix of new tweaks and integration of new technologies. Personally I love it and the last minute of this track is awesome.

I had many of those same thoughts when I first heard it.
I will admit I spend most of my time when watching the vid trying to figure out just what that split wood thing is and how to make one

I've got three different ideas on it and am thinking of getting some bamboo to try them out.
