I saw a similar shirt for sale this Saturday in Bremen, while I was shopping next to the "Pier2" venue, so I looked up on the net for a pic of it, to share it here. It was quite an interesting find :D ....... also the next "big" fight of Ali was called "Thrilla in Manilla", and somehow this rhymes exactly the same way as the lyric "Killer in Manilla" in I'm Lonely, so the rhyme could be inspired by Ali too :D

Yes, Rumble in the jungle was a box match between Cassius Clay and George Foreman. The game was named rumble in the jungle because the fight was in Zair (R.P.S Congo) in mid 70's. And another hystoric game was held in Manilla (Filipines) between Cassius Clay (Muhamad Ali) and Joe Fraser called "The Gorilla in Manilla". It's a long story, Muhamad called Fraser a gorilla...it was ugly, with harsh interviews, racist point of view's etc (the whole thing can be found on Google)

Here is another lyrics that HP used and it is from M. Ali (that's how he described his fighting style): Ali was well known for his unorthodox fighting style, which he described as "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee"
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.

I guess those of us who were around at that time have lost track of how long ago it was, if you were around back then it's something not be be forgotten, because the fight and "floa like a butterfly sting like a bee" were really well known back then :)

And that was in a Scooter track too btw ;)
I thought everybody knows what is "rumble in a jungle"... Ali is a legend.

Skitzmix 37 (the latest one) has a few samples of Scooter in it. The intro to the megamix features "Stealth" and throughout the megamix you can hear samples from "J'adore Hardcore" and "Imaginary Battle".

I tried looking for it on YouTube to show you guys but it's not there as far as I can tell.

By the way for those of you who don't know, Skitzmix is a dance compilation here in Australia mixed by the Australian DJ Nick Skitz. Scooter features heavily on his releases as they are his favourite band.

Thanks for the tip transcore. ;)

And YES, great news Christiane! :thumbsup: If they're going to be in a chart show at this time, they surely are not going to play Stuck On Replay. :thumbup: 8o :D (Or if they do they're mad and suicidal and I'll rip my head off.) I think the first play of the new single is happening this week!!
:rolleyes: This is a signature.

I think also that Nessaja will be played because it was highly succesfull, and it was in the millennium decade.

To keep the rumors alive, look at this... It's from Scooter Techno from facebook!

INFO about the forthcoming album!

*The album will have a release in March 2011 (Source: Austrian newspaper)
*The album will not be Jumpstyle/Hardstyle (Source: H.P. Baxxter)

...And In a local interview, Rick said that the next album will be influenced by Progressive and Electro.

Interesting :)

And here's the whole source!

And now... Make your own opinion. ;)
At the moment: Here is enough space for broken dreams! ;( ;( ;(
