En estos días de manifiestos y leyes de economía sostenible kinder (con regalo sorpresa dentro), me quedo con este ejemplo que muestra el potencial de Internet para promocionarse, sin grandes apoyos de multinacionales.
Obadiah Parker es un cantautor de Nashville que tiene su página web, sube sus actuaciones a youtube, vende sus discos con paypal, tiene sus canciones en MySpace. Y gracias a esto, mediante twitter descubrí esta estupenda versión del Hey Ya de OutKast.
Letra:
My baby don’t mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for shooo..
Uh, But does she really wanna
But can’t stand to see me
Walk out the dooor..Don’t try to fight the feelin’
Because the thought alone is killing me right now..
Uh, thank god for mom and dad
For sticking two together
‘Cause we don’t know how…[estribillo]
Hey Ya
Hey Ya
Hey Ya
Hey YaYou think you’ve got it
Oh, you think you’ve got it
But got it just don’t get it
Till’ there’s nothing atWe get together
Oh, we get together
But seperate’s always better when there’s feelings
InvolvedIf what they say is «Nothing is forever»
Then what makes, Then what makes, Then what makes
Then what makes, Then what makes love?
Love exception
So why you, why you
Why you, why you, why you are we so in denial
When we know we’re not happy here[estribillo]
Hey, alright now
Alright now fellas
Now what’s cooler than bein’ cool?
I can’t hear ya’
I say what’s cooler than bein’ cool?
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, Ok now ladies
And we gon’ break this thing down in just a few seconds
Now don’t have me break this thang down for nothin’
Now I wanna see y’all on y’all baddest behavior
Lend me some sugar, I am your neighbor ahh here we go!
Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake, shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it like a Polaroid Picture, shake it, shake it
Shh you got to, shake it, shh shake it, shake it, got to shake it
Shake it like a Polaroid Picture[estribillo]
