Can't understand all the complainers here.
Take him as what he is: One very creative artist!

Since years he's always changed the music he's been standing for, has mixed different styles and musicians....

Dig the music and the guy.

Is that a sample of Chris Tucker from The 5th Element?

I love other Manu Chao stuff I've heard... this feels like a couple different songs are playing at the same time...

I've noticed an edge to Bill's playlists recently, too - and I like it! Love this tune, love Manu. 8

Cheap shot. No place for that here. Grow up. What, were you born in a barn? No need to ask.

So... how many times were you at the midnight showing with your squirt gun, newspaper...? For me? Many showings at "The Varsity" in U-City Missoura... Does anyone know if this is still wandering the midnight movie circuit...? Good times!


I have it on DVD. I can't dance at all otherwise, but I can still do the "Time Warp"

The Show is still out there. It's Midnight at the Belmont Theater in Nashville. All Virgins are, of course, welcomed with a very Transforming Experience.

Imagine popular country comedian Jeff Foxworthy in high heels and fishnets.
If that image is a little too "intense" for you, you may not want to read the
rest of...

YOU MIGHT BE A "ROCKY" FAN IF...
by Twentieth Century Foxworthy

...you spend $50 per month on rice, and you can't stand the taste of the stuff

...you shout out AP lines during sex

...you gladly shell out $150 for a mint condition copy of the rare Outer
Mongolian "RHS" cast album, but you couldn't afford to pay your rent this
month

...you've named your children Brad and Janet

...Perry Bedden has had to get a restraining order against you

...you sat through all 13 hours of "I, Claudius" just to see Patricia Quinn

...you have to remove your makeup with a power sander

...you can't understand how the Academy could've possibly picked "One Flew
Over the Cuckoo's Nest" for Best Picture of 1975 when "RHPS" was the obvious
choice

...you celebrated Tim Curry's birthday and not your own

...you don't have "tennis elbow" but you do have "Time Warper's knee"

...you know the words to "Hot Patootie" by heart, but you can't seem to
remember any of the answers on your history final

...you're still reading this

...you wish Congress would tackle the *really* vital issues, like the "hoopla"
vs. "up now" controversy

...you still remember how to do the rock (and the swim!)

...you've got Sal Piro's phone number on "speed dial"

...J. Alan Pfaff asks *you* about "RHPS"

...you throw rice and toilet paper at the screen during "Pocahontas"

...you never watch more than the first half hour of "Saturday Night Live"
(except for the Tim Curry, Barry Bostwick, and Meat Loaf episodes which you've
got on tape)

...you've got a big poster of Saddam Hussien on your wall (OOPS! That's a
sign that you might be an _Iraqi_ fan!)

...you've watched Tim Curry's "The Worst Witch" more than once

...the salespeople at the local lingiere shops know you by name, and you're a
guy

...you finally save up enough for a trip to England, and once you get there,
you skip Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and Stonehenge and head straight for
Oakley Court to see where "RHPS" was filmed

...your car horn plays "The Time Warp"

...your favorite charity is "Save the Hunchbacks"

...you play Eddie in the show's cast, and you gained 75 pounds and had half
your brain removed for the sake of "realism"

...you plan on assassinating Tim Robbins so you and Susan Sarandon can be
"together at last!"

..at every meal you serve the same thing: meatloaf!

Why, Come Right In!

Here, Let me take your coat.

Why, You Are All wet!

-------------

It's just a jump to the left.
And then a step to the right.
With your hands on your hips.
You bring your knees in tight.
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane.
Let's do the time-warp again.

Yes, Manu is an acquired taste like wine or good sex. (said with my nose firmly pointing straight up)

Innovative?! The clubish siren in the background? The endless repetition? I wouldn't be surprised if the lyrics even read as 'to da xtreme'. Innovative? Really?

But to each their own. It just sticks out like a sore thumb in RP's playlist.

EDIT: Ha! Same thoughts, same time! I'm with the guy below. : )

INNOVATIVE?????
No melody, rythm like played by a 2 year old monkey, lyrics "bouh the world is too baaad"! INNOVATIVE?
If you think it is innovative, I DO hope MUSIC will never become what you want it to be.

Hummmm... Ciao, Manu!
