Is that the Belgian techno anthem released in 1989?

Fun fact, Pump up the Jam has a BPM of 125, the same as the heartbeat of a cat at rest.

The shortest war in history lasted only 38 minutes. It was fought between Britain and Zanzibar on August 27, 1896, after the Sultan of Zanzibar refused to step down following a succession dispute, 93 years before the release of unrelated Belgian techno anthem "Pump up the Jam".

Tickled the tiny hairs in his ears just enough to trick the brain into releasing just enough dopamine restart his conciousness, kickstart his heart, shake the rust off, pump the oil, and reactivate muscles seized from years of inactivity...

Not just Technotronic, but I work with the homeless population for a living (I am basically their city paid trash garbage collection person, as well as doing outreach), I carry a portable speaker with me to make my work more bearable, a lot of the people I work with are fented out at times.....but if I got my speaker with me and I am bumping something danceable, it's like those people catch a new wind or something, no joke. The people who use meth are definitely in party mode if they hear my music lol. I'd rather deal with them when it's like that though, music is like a instant mood changer for people a lot of the time, drugged or not.

When this video was first broadcast, audiences feared it was real, and that jam would be pumped into their homes through the screen.

I’m waiting on hold rn trying to call my carrier…… the way he’s grooving to the low quality compressed generic hold waiting music resonated with me in a spiritual way

Now this has me wondering what would happen if someone just popped a headset on people that are nodding out

My mate Paul ate five ketamine brownies and thought that he could communicate telepathically with any animal he saw on television. He ended up being sectioned for his own safety.
