| | Lou Bega: Mambo Jumbo [September 1999, Renaissance Online Magazine] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19) |
 | | Lou Bega would have you think it's Mambo. |
 | | But it is - and not in the lyrics, but rather, in the cacophony of keyboards and, worst of all, Bega's stab at rapping. |
 | | After all, as Bega's press release states, "'Mambo No. 5' is a huge success, having sold in excess of one million units in Germany alone...and there is a real 'Mambo tidal wave' rolling down from the North Sea to the Alps." And we all know what musical aficionados those Germans are. |
