Szabó Eszter - Play that Funky Music White Boy - Wild Cherry

Szabó Eszter - Play that Funky Music White Boy - Wild Cherry

(Listen to the original Wild Cherry version)

Szabó Eszter came fourth in the third series of Hungarian Idol (Megasztár) 2005-2006. This is her performance on the 80s' hits night.

Play that Funky music white boy:

Hey...do it now

once I was a boogie singer...playin' in a rock & roll band
I never had no problems, yeah...burnin' down the one night stands
And everything around me, got to start to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly [yes, I did]...to disco down and check out the show

Yeah, they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die...
till you die...

Well, I tried to understand this...Yeah, huh, I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish, ...tonight's the hours, the one behind
So still I kept on fightin'... loosin' every step of the way (Yeah, what'd you do?)
I said, "I must go back there"[Got to go back]...and check to see if things still the same

Yeah, they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die...

Eszter (the singer) Has a very deep and raw, husky voice. She wore different kinds of hats trough the show. That made her a unique contestant.

The song was originally composed by Robert Parissi, singer of the rock band: Wild Cherry. It was sung by different singers too, like: James Brown or Prince

1956 Hungarian Revolution Film Maker Dies: Joseph Miko, 87

One hero falls. RIP, Joseph Miko

Joseph Miko, 87; filmed the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, then had to flee
Los Angeles Times
By Dennis McLellan, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
Joseph S. Miko, a former cameraman whose extensive footage of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution was smuggled out of Budapest and is considered a significant piece of the documentary record of the historic national uprising against Soviet oppression, has died. He was 87.

see: http://hungarianbookstore.com/Hungary-1956.htm

Miko died of blood cancer April 28 at UCLA Medical Center, said his son, Joe.

A retired owner of camera and electronics stores in Santa Monica and Manhattan Beach, Miko was forced to flee Hungary with his family after capturing the short-lived revolution on film.

Some of the footage that Miko shot of the massive crowds of demonstrators and fighting in the streets of Budapest was shown on "The 20th Century," a CBS documentary series narrated by Walter Cronkite. More than four decades later, Miko and his footage were featured in a segment of the four-part History Channel special "Caught on Film."

Miko's footage, which he stored in his garage for decades before donating 177 minutes' worth to the Hungarian National Film Archive in 1993, has also been used in the recent documentaries"Freedom's Fury" and "Torn From the Flag."
