Hello All

I think that the official FIFA World Cup song (Shakira-Waka Waka) is really lame and it's actually pretty weak. If any of you have heard Waving Flag-K'naan, I think that should be our official song-It has so much pride for supporting a team and just makes you anticipate the FWC More.

Any thoughts from you guys? Let me know what song you would prefer or like.
 
Yup, agrees totally. I especially love the Wavin' Flag remix with David Bismaal.
 
all those songs suck!! Shibobo should be the official song!

It's not even on the FIFA World Cup cd, which is a bit disappointing.
 
No doubt the songs they are pushing are really guff! This is Africa and this is our World Cup and it should reflect the sounds and rhythms of Africa and South Africa. It should be sung by local artists. We have a wealth of local talent and I think our LOC have disgraced the country in this regard. Pity!
 
What does Shakira know about football anyway?

The song makes me dread the world cup...
 
You guys should check out EA's fifa 2010 world cup. Has a really good soundtrack with a diverse mix of both african and western music genres, including the aforementioned 'wave your flag' song. I think the game soundtrack would've made a way better official soundtrack.

Some people are only as fortunate as to have a PC. Bloody EA Sports left us out in the dark!

Unless its RTS. Play that on your console!

On topic: I like the Waving flag song, I think it should be the official song!

I think the reason why it hasn't been chosen as the WC song is because it is already Coke Cola's official WC track. They were then left to choose Waka Waka which is IMO a weaker song compared to Wavin Flag.
