Many of us have happy childhood memories of West Germany's Dschinghis Khan's* Eurovision performance of their disco hit Moskau. In recent years the video clip has become somewhat of a web phenomenon - and deservedly so. The French automobile manufacturer Renault has recently produced a commercial for their new ECO2 "green" vehicle to air in Spain. It's great to hear such a cool tune being recycled like this. Es real, Willy! Es real! YouTube via Los mejores anuncios de televisión.
*Were you aware?: Dschinghis Khan is the German spelling for Genghis Khan. It is also how John Kerry pronounced it in his Winter Soldier testimony.
The "G" is pronounced somewhere between a D, J, Ch, and Zh.. and the E immediately following is pronounced like "i" in "ship"
A more correct Anglicized spelling would look something like this: Dchzjingus Khan- more correct yes, but far less fear-inspiring ;)
