25/06/08 14:31 Filed in: Helldorado
As you might now the official fan song for the
Turkish National Football Team is a version
of
Helldorado´s
"A Drinking Song". Turkey is playing the
semi-finals against Germany tonight, and the
interest for both the official football song,
Helldorado´s original version and the band has
been rising through the tournament. Today the
Norwegian newspaper VG presented a "mash up" of
the football video and Helldorado´s original
video on their
web TV.
Earier Norwegian TV2 did a
story
on the case.
Our licensing partner in Germany, Glitterhouse, reports that "Der Tagesspiegel" (one of the biggest German newspapers, from Berlin) wrote a lengthy feature about "A Drinking Song" and the Turkish team. SAT1 tv (one of the big four German tv-channels) showed excerpts from "A Drinking Song" and from the Turkish team's version in their "Breakfast Magazine" twice this morning.
Our record label in Turkey, Artist Music, reports that the popularity of Helldorado is growing. The album was last week at number 1. on the Rock Music Chart in Turkey and number 18. on the international sales charts in Turkey. Numberone FM has put the track on heavy rotation and the song is currently #1 on their Top 40. The video is started playing on MTV Turkey.
