It's no more cheesy than any other. Actually it's less cheesy than a lot which haven't made it onto american radio.

kernkraft 400 is a standard at sports games here in the states... the live mix.

....?

Sandstorm is one of the most ameteur sounding productions ever to hit the radios anywhere, darude was probably confused at its success as was anyone else,

as for the topic...

I have heard it many places, but probably the vehicles which its vile filth emits from comandeered by some punctured freak of nature who should be listening to white power hate music, or something for their breed often stikes a strange note.

I have Energy 52 - Cafe del Mar, Flutlicht - The Fall and Paul van Dyk - For an Angel as ringtone

Posted by Trance Nutter on Oct-28-2004 13:46:

back onto topic:

Sandstorm and Safri Duo - Played-A-Live are both favourites of a really good Australian swimming stadium announcer, so we hear it at state and national championships.
Last World Champs - he was one of the English language announcers, so heard it there
OLYMPICS - he was there as an english language announcer, he played them both.

These songs get played when the swimmers are filing out onto the pool deck behind the blocks. Obviously during the morning heat sessions (when I heard them at the Olys) he didn't have to play the Oly theme, so he played these instead.

I shit you not.
