    iPlay: Miriam Makeba

    February 5, 2010 by NaysWay · Leave a Comment 

    I heard this song on a commercial for a car. It drove me nuts, not because I didn’t like the song, but because I COULDN’T STOP SINGING IT. AND IT’S NOT IN ENGLISH! So what was I singing? Nothing short of saying “bubblegum” over and over again. Or, in this case, “zaka zuka zaka zaa, niceeeeee pata pata”.

    Thank God I knew the song was called “Pata Pata”. How the hell else would I know where to put it?

    FEAR says: Miriam Makeba was on this episode of The Cosby Show. One of my favorite.
