Do you remember when the people at Time were editorializing about Las Ketchup's song, the cleverly titled Ketchup Song?
I distinctly remember people talking about how big this song was going to be but it never
caught on in Canada! I thought I was one of the select few who knew what was about to transpire in the summer of 2002, (or was it 2003?). The tastemakers at that small-press magazine predicted badly. The last time I crossed the the US-Canada border to New York City, I missed declaring my good taste.
I like the rocksteady touch of the slap guitar. Do you hear it? No? I also hear surf-rock. The crossover potential of this song clearly escaped Canadian music consumers.
My question is, would Kevin Drew have signed them for a better distribution deal?
