ladies and gentlemen this is garlic number 2

I had the chance to interview Lou Bega about his music career, but the only question I asked him was, "Why did every woman's name end with A in Mambo No. 5 but Mary?" I was shot by a sniper a few seconds after.

No mambo no. 5?

Oh, I wanted it to make the bracket so badly... unfortunately the voters apparently didn't agree with me. Only received one submission.

Taco Number 5

*cleaning up my baby after eating tacos*

A little bit of cheese between your toes

A little bit of salsa on your nose

A little bit of lettuce in your hair

A little bit of tortilla everywhere

A little bit of meat on both your feet

A little bit of beans staining your jeans

A little bit of food spread on the ground

A little bit of taco all around (ah!)

A Mambo Moment

Season 4 Episode 1 Featured on: SiIvaGunner's Highest Quality Rips: Volume AI

Ripped by Cryptrik

God, man - I ALWAYS forget just how good Cryptrik is at ripping until I hear another one of his works. I've covered it from time to time on here already, primarily their great big mashup-medleys, Battle Emergency and Follow μ’s / Halation Generation - it came as no surprise at all to learn that the guy has experience in DJing. Yet in rediscovering Maroonbound recently, I was reminded of how vast Cryptrik's list of contributions really is, how many facets of it I'm still unfamiliar with. And now with A Mambo Moment, I'm starting to actually consider - is Cryptrik a Maroon 5head just like me??

Like, maybe Maroonbound should've made it obvious, but I'd partially just assumed it was made for Chaze the Chat moreso than due to Cryptrik himself actually being a Maroon 5 fan. And maybe that is the case, maybe this rip too isn't meant to be taken that seriously - but fuck man, Shiver? Of the songs on Songs About Jane, its hardly the most recognizable, it's not like Harder to Breathe 64 or Sunday Morning which used the album's big singles - Shiver is the kind of deep-cut that I myself had never even heard until listening to the whole album for myself. Mind, this isn't me complaining, Songs About Jane in its entirety is an all-time album for me for all of its tracks, and I adore Shiver as well: it blends an intimidating and almost threatening tone with a sense of funk only rivaled by fellow album deep-cut Tangled. Maybe it was that funkiness, and the inherent comedy in mashing up its imposing feel with a tune as fun-loving as Mambo No. 5, that led to A Mambo Moment being made - if such was the thought process, it was a stroke of genius.

And really, it is just that simple reason why this rip is featured here. Cryptrik found a really fun way to mash up two songs that feel as if on opposite ends of the vibe spectrum, elevating it beyond the standard mashup at several points throughout. Be it the rip's beginning including both Shiver's iconic guitar distortion and Mambo No. 5's verbal introduction, the slightly swing-ier rhythm that Shiver's vocals get to fit through the new percussion, the breaks in both songs' instrumentals at Mambo No. 5's designated pauses...it all works incredibly well!!

But again, most of all, I am just happy to see Shiver get repped on the channel. This is, unlike a lot of the recent coverage on here a la Light! (Potentialseeker Colress), a rip where I AM attached to both sources used, and it makes the end result all the sweeter, the kind of mashup I never knew I wanted but adore ever so much now that I've heard it in action. Really, A Mambo Moment is the second Cryptrik rip like this to be covered on here, after Give Me the Fantasy - and its possible it won't even be the last! The guy's rips just has a way to plainly make me happy, and I'm so happy that he's still contributing to SiIvaGunner with his same signature style, eight years into it all.

‘Wynonna Earp’ is one of those shows that is so campy you can learn absolutely useless information such as the corporate and legislation struggles of the creation and production of the song ‘Mamba No. 5’ by Lou Bega. A song that no one even cares about anymore.

Thank you, Nedley. 😂

I love this show. ❤️❤️❤️

It’s batshit cray cray and I fucking love it for it!

I haven’t seen TV art/entertainment like this for a long fucking time and I am REVELLING in it! 👍🤣👏
