Customer Reviews for Watusi
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Rating:
With Watusi The Wedding Present have produced a surpricingly upbeat album with an amazingly ugly cover. What can one expect from a Wedding Present album with songs titled `yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah', `shake it', it's a gas' and `hot pants'? Utter feeling of betrayal and despair of course. Each hapless girlfriend that has courted Gedge and gotten away has inevitably become infamous in the mind of every fan as his frustrations towards the female (and the new boyfriend) find release in a new song. But here Gedge is swinging like an adolescent, dipping only in `spangle' implying that his predestined history with the opposite gender hasn't strayed from the path. Never too complex, never abandoning a winning formula (the guitarriff never gets boring even though it's used in every single song on every single album) The Wedding Present is never short of great.

PERFECTION!!!
Rating:
I first heard songs off this back when it came out and I was first in college and doing a zine. These guy's music have stuck in my head ever since!!! This CD is surfly Indie rock with great vocals. Spangle is beautiful sounds like its music is made up of old samples .Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah is the perfect bootie shaker and Click Click
has great harmonies (boy/girl) and a super vibe!
No CD collection is complete with out this one.
Editorial Reviews for Watusi Audio Cd

David Gedge's punk-pop combo delivers another likeable and very English album for their handful of fans in the colonies. Emphasis track "Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah," the Billy Bragg-like "Gazebo," and surf instrumental "Hot Pants" are minimally produced and loaded with happy, cat-scratch guitars. Jeff Bateman
