BBC News: Spoof 'Newport State of Mind' video becomes web hit |
|
A Welsh parody of the hit song Empire State of Mind has become an overnight sensation on the internet.
The original song by rapper Jay-Z extols the virtues of living in New York. But the spoof version features actors singing about their love of Newport in South Wales.
Hundreds of thousands of people have watched it online and it has even been played on Radio One.
The director of the video, M-J Delaney, and its stars Alex Warren and Terema Wainwright, spoke to BBC Breakfast about making the song.

Could be used as a starting point for pupils creating their own parodies. |

Youtube: Most important 6 second drum loop |
|
This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. This sample was used extensively in early hiphop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip.
