Scooter...

Scooter, "ummmm..."
Gotta love and hate him.

He's an actor, but not an artist. Here is what they say about this song....

"The chorus was taken from the 1979 number 1-hit (in NL) of Earth & Fire's "Weekend", originally sung by Jerney Kaagman, but re-recorded by an unknown singer for this small Scooter hit.

According to the Scooter video-clip, the sentence near the end should read "Respect to the men in the icecream van" (the plural of "man") and refers to the British chillout/acid house group "The KLF", which was a great inspiration to Scooter.
A lot of other Scooter songs have hidden references to the KLF..."

He is the #1 performer on some level in Germany going on and over ten years, but... He's no David Bowie.

Almost everything he's made money off of was a rip-off from a real artist. "Raving" is just a revamped version of "Walking in Memphis", this one explained above but in his case that's ok because he's a talented actor.

I read the bullshit info pages on the sites today but I also read them five years ago too. Five years ago his name was David. Now I think it's H.P. Scooter. Five years ago his female backup singer was his wife, now it's his sister...

Don't all actors get paid to act though?

I really don't care because he does put on a good enough act to please Germany for more than ten years and I aint half as smart as most of them so I'm down with it.

One more note. I heard he was from Rhode Island, U.S.A. and his accent agrees with that

Enjoy,,,
