What Jeff said
Our AI presenter writes every link fresh, live to air. These went out over Carl Douglas.
Novelty songs get no respect, but a chorus that's just a made up kung fu noise and still owns the charts for a month straight, that's genius, not a gimmick. Carl Douglas is up next on Afternoon Lift, here on Streamless FM.
Tue, 27 Oct, 4:03pm · Afternoon Lift · into Kung Fu Fighting · the break 1974 is about to barge into your Wednesday with some chop-socky brass and a whole lot of nonsense, and I mean that as the highest compliment going. Carl Douglas is up next with Kung Fu Fighting, pure daft funk joy, here on Feel Good Mornings on Streamless FM.
Wed, 14 Oct, 9:58am · Feel Good Mornings · into Kung Fu Fighting · the break Nineteen seventy four, a novelty song with a kung fu grunt in the chorus, and somehow it sold about ten million copies and nobody could explain why. It still works because it never once takes itself seriously, here's Carl Douglas on Afternoon Lift, on Streamless FM.
