I’d sit through ‘Genie in a Bottle’, ‘Man I Feel Like a Woman’ and ‘Boom Boom Boom Boom’ with my finger poised on the record button, waiting for number one. )’ by Lou Bega would always come in at the top spot with that big farting trumpet and that impossibly thin moustache. It happened when Bob the Builder sang “a little bit of timber and a saw, a little bit of fixing, that’s for sure” on his first album(?). It happened when Lou Bega played 90s nostalgia festival So Pop and lipsynched his way through his 4pm set. Even as a fan of both Lou Bega and Cruskits, I never expected to see the two combine forces.
