I stumbled upon Fat Freddy about 3 weeks ago, and been loving it eversince. Been to all the record stores here in Antwerp, Belgium, but cant find any of their CDs... Luckely they are comming to the Pukkelpop-festival here :) And I should really get me a ticket!!!
Fat freddys are the best. I love it that they end the song with different beatS and tuneS. they do it with heaps of their songs. REPPIN UP NZ BRO. CHOICE!!!
Kia Ora, Aotearoa. As a proud Canadian the connection I feel with the Great NZ is both a surprise and a bit of heart ache... FFD is a part of that flow and soul connection. Reminds me of a Forgotten Rebels song "Won't be long 'til I see you again, just think about me while you..."
Thanks to you both! We Canadians are polite but we are not as outgoing and friendly as you Kiwi's, your charm and laid back ways remind us of where we once were, as a people. I am stoked to be returning to my Southern home near the end of the year.
New Zealand... fucking best country in the Southern Hemisphere! To the south from up here we have a big special needs cousin who is very violent... so you don't turn your back on him because he'll stab you and take your toys, but he's your family and not very bright so you kinda love him, begrudgingly. 'murica. Aotearoa is in NO nations shadow. Yes, mos def there is a certain self-depreciation but the quality of life is important, and NZ has it. The media (no doubt mostly off shore owned) plays up on that. I love Melbourne. The rest... uh... yeah, no. Being able to walk in bare feet in grass and not get stung, bitten or stabbed? priceless...
Highly entertaining ... clever, clever and just bloody brilliant! And, the song was xcelllent too! Love the vid! Congrats! Showing the folks in US and Canada!
the Skank is the swing of the sound that Reggae artist produce. Its the feeling of the music moving ur body. Jesus so many different ideas of what skank really is, most of u are correct. im from the Carribbean and play reggae. You learn that from a very young age. Thats why u see the rasta's dancing the way they do.
Soooooooooo Many people dont know how good this song really is... I think Favourited this song like 1,000 time already~! AOTEAROA WHAT, ALL BLACKS AND WARRIORS GO HARD BUDDAH'Z~!
Mahalo, I learned what skanking was a few years ago, and it's been interesting. I like this music it's very Pacific Island and the world. The virtual images is great. Thanks for the feel good natural feeling, we need to really get this type of humanity out there even after 1 million visits, we new oldies need to be on task with what's out there for the sake of knowing our young people. Lite the fire under us kine people that take in the relax mold for the love of music-just do it and skant!

I read that that's how they got the name for the band ... and I think, how they wrote one of their first hits - "Hope"
This tune never gets old.

Yeah, i honestly feel the same way about Canada being a kiwi. My top place i want to visit.

@seeeeeeeeed The skank is actually the off beat guitar or piano that creates that unique reggae sound. lol bit of music history.
