A little something to make your mind.

(Although I did love the fur coat for some unknown reason.) By the way, the ``Ooga Chaka'' part is pretty much the definition of non sequitur. Why the hell are they there? Who thought that that would add something to that song? It feels more like a mistake than anything else. _________________________ Bitt Faulk

tfabris carpal tunnel Registered: 20/12/1999 Posts: 31597 Loc: Seattle, WA	is it one of his real songs? David Hasselhoff did not write that song. It is a cover tune of an awful old '70's number. After sitting through an excruciating 45 seconds of the video, I can safely say he did not improve it any in the remake. _________________________ Tony Fabris

Bad enough in the original by Björn Skifs (swede) from '74. For some reason the song struck big in the US where the group went by the name Blue Swede. Hmmm, seems that wasn't the real original, but a remake of a song by a B.J Thomas from 1969 - according to this site /Michael _________________________ /Michael
