Ping the noise

  • May 15, 2007
  • Popjustice

"At first I did want to con­sciously make a record that had a cool sound to it. But then I said to myself: 'Fuck that'."

We are quite enjoying the current 'rein­ven­tion of Enrique' and the new video for 'Do You Know (The Ping Pong Song)' is another step in the right direction.

It's like Five's 'Let's Dance' video — but actually funny.

FYI we asked Enrique's PR whether the ping pong sounds were recorded by Anna Kournikova firing table tennis balls out of her 'julio' and after several days the news came back that, sadly, they were not.
