The media is now running his campaign and the campaign song, Volare, is sung in a mixture of English and Italian (because we all need to learn Italian). They haven’t released the video yet, but I did find two excellent examples. The first one, from The Gipsy Kings, reminds us of Obama’s Wil.I.Am [...]

Eighty-nine years young, the original caped crusader will be reborn once more in the West End from today, as a singing, dancing, romancing, leaping, fencing, avenging, inexhaustible Zorro takes to the boards. With book and lyrics by Stephen Clark and music by the Gipsy Kings, Zorro!, starring Matthew Rawle, is the latest in a long line of moral masked men whose image has lately been retuned for the...

Friday night, the first reunion for those of us who went to Skyros. The reunion took place in El Metro II, next to Hammersmith (H&C) Station - not so much a Spanish restuarant as a Spanish theme bar. The music manages to be simultaneously deafening and cheesy - how much of the Gipsy Kings do you need, after all? - and the food is only average, but we had a good time. Plenty of dancing which is always...

Their successful yet unobtrusive existence, their strummy music, their bizarre interpretation of "My Way", their vigorous rhythms, all leave me entirely lukewarm, I could take them or I could leave them, that is the truth. On the other hand I hope I keep the Gipsy Kings awake at night, as they plot my death in acid. Noreen http://www.irishblogs.info/index.php?do=votes&id=184

You must be lonely and crave attention. There not my favourite band but calling them lukewarm is like calling Barry White skinny. Here's your attention.
