Lyrics by Ronald Reagan :-)



L'11 agosto 1984 l'allora presidente degli Stati Uniti Ronald Reagan che correva per la rielezione si stava preparando a fare un discorso alla radio. Come sound check prima dell'inizio del programma Reagan fece il cosiddetto "discorso dei cinque minuti".

Per errore il commento fu trasmesso in diretta...

Una registrazione delle parole di Reagan fu utilizzata da Jerry Harrison dei Talking Heads e da Bootsy Collins per un singolo dance in cui le parole di Reagan venivano inizialmente proposte rallentate e dopo "rappate" su una base ritmica.


On August 11, 1984, United States President Ronald Reagan, while running for re-election was preparing to make a radio address. As a sound check prior to the address, Reagan made the "Five Minutes Speech"

The comment was inadvertently broadcasted to the general populace.

A recording of the speech was sampled by musicians Jerry Harrison and Bootsy Collins and edited into the dance single "Five Minutes", credited to "Bonzo goes to Washington".
