ACE OF BASE – “All That She Wants” | FreakyTrigger

A question for Tom Ewing, if he happens to see this… have you ever heard “All That She Wants (Banghra Version)” [sic!]? It’s a B-side on the 12” single, which I bought not long ago. It’s no substitute for the original, and I’m not sure how much it really even qualifies as bhangra, but coming as it does nearly a decade before Missy Elliott’s “Get Ur Freak On,” I find it fascinating and really hope I can find a chance to play it out in public for people sometime, surprising them with it. Swedish bhangra— almost as wonderfully ludicrous as Swedish reggae, right? Almost.
