Well , this song obviously will be about Salmon. A Dancing Salmon.


I say we work out a choreography and at gigs we can all do the Salmon Dance! What do u say ?!

I think that all attendees to the Roundhouse gig should bring a salmon with them for inclusion in the dance. Something along the lines of: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=WsfiD78Cy0s

hahahaha, you guys are so silly. ;)


That said, I expect youtube uploads to this site of you all bustin' salmon moves. Either inside or outside the venue.

"Let me introduce to you a brand new dish…

I know you gonna like it cos its made of fish!"


I think someone should just dress in a giant salmon suit for the show and try stage diving towards the front like a salmon going upstream

There's nothing quite like good sushi. We finally discovered an awesome sushi restaurant about a month ago. It's wicked, there's a room that has sit-on-the-floor dining, but the whole place is kick back and authentic - no matter where you eat in this place, it's all good.


Salmon sushi is the shiznit. I had salmon sashimi last weekend and it was the best salmon I've ever had (I don't eat poultry or red meat, just fish so I know a good piece of fish when I eat it). But damn, this salmon sashimi I had... like butter.

haha, i already have some moves in place for this song - I'm guessing it's gonna be one funkkkky no. with Fatlip involved. I'm working on the moves with my kittens, sadly I'd prolly be dancing with em only, since no djs will ever get 'round to playin this here, n I'd never get to one of European or American gigs this yr. :(

The other day I was watching a show on salmon (I think it was on Discovery channel)...In brief, they have this epic journey upriver in order to reproduce where they jump and wiggle to fight the stream to get to the top of the river to lay eggs...and then the female salmon die of tiredness couple of days after securing the eggs...It's some mad work-out haha....


Anyways, the jump and wiggle should be the essence of a salmon dance haha...


And on a side note, since you guys were talking about Japanese food...I suggested to my friends who work at a Japanese restaurant to create a new roll called The Salmon Dance...And to celebrate their epic journey, the roll should contain those damm eggs (salmon eggs are called Ikura...by the way, I really like Ikura sushi)...I feel like sushi now haha...

igloo - with your friends' permission the salmon dance sushi how-to should be posted in the Your Own Recipes thread. *hint hint, nudge nudge, wink wink*

"The Chemical Brother's 'The Salmon Dance' hit #8 in UK charts shortly after its release in 2007. It later gained a cult following at parties after a group of fans of the Chemical Brothers created a dance by the same name. The Salmon Dance is now the most popular dance, overshadowing DJ Casper's 'Cha Cha Slide' aka. 'The Casper Slide'. Like 'The Cha Cha Slide', the 'Slamon Dance' is typical fodder for DJs to play, especially when the dance floor begins to stagnate and needs an anthem to repopulate itself. The Salmon Dance is simply described as jumping and wiggling, which inspired the American name, Jump and Wiggle, for the dance."

I'm sure the actual song has absolutely nothing about dancing like a salmon, and it's just a very clever name.


I mean, really, Phatlip rapping about dancing like a fish? that would be just way too silly. No one would ever make a song like that ;)

i agree totally. it has to be metaphorically, just in case it was actually about a salmon dance. ;)
