February 28 Part II - New Shaggy UEFA EURO 2008 single "Feel the Rush"; video to be released in April
Shaggy is helping to get the UEFA EURO 2008 Soccer Cup Party started. Yesterday, he presented his new single "(Trix & Flix feat. Shaggy) Like A Superstar" in Bern, Switzerland at an event where also the new UEFA EURO 2008 soccer site was launched. French urban artist Bashi, who recorded the refrains in French/Swiss as "Bring en hei", was also there. You can view a YouTube video of Shaggy and Bashi below.
Shaggy also added another song to the UEFA EURO 2008 soundtrack (which also features a song by Rollo from Faithless among others). Shaggy's new song is a very energetic song called "Feel the Rush". Shaggy also already shot a video for this new single, showing him traveling through the country side - oh yeah, being transported on a motor tractor - to the stadium, while he meets all kinds of people and plays soccer with a couple of boys. It's actually pretty cool!
This new Shaggy single and video clip will be released in Berlin, Germany, in April. You can read an interview with Shaggy and view a picture from the video shoot (click on "vergrößern" to enlarge) as well as pic from the press conference (click on the photo itself to enlarge it) on DiePresseSport.
