Bill Bailey does Kraftwerk

w8, is it some sort of concert? if so why are the people laughing so hard?

judging from how the staged looked, it is a concert, maybe they were some sort of comedy singers, can't tell for sure cause i don't understand german :(

Looks like I need to explain. This was a comedy show by the English comedian Bill Bailey, and he does mix a bit of music into his shows. The clip I posted was from the end of his show, and people are laughing because it is very funny. No, really it is.

Why? Well, Bill Bailey is English, and his audience is English (sorry, Welsh). He was doing a spoof of Kraftwerk, a German band who did a lot of progressive electronic music. The song that Bill is singing is "The Hokey Cokey", in German. It's like Metalica doing Old Macdonald, or Gwen Stefani singing Baa Baa Blacksheep.

Sorry - I'll have to do better next time.
