This weekend, fun-loving people across America will again temporarily stop not caring about soccer. The 2010 World Cup is has finally arrived! Every 4 years Americans join the rest of the world in their love for the international game.
During the tournament’s television coverage, you will most likely hear, repeatedly, Shakira’s “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa),” the official anthem of the World Cup.
The Columbian born singer is joined in the song by the local Cape Town group Freshly Ground. Check them out sans Shakira in "Doo Be Doo"
By the way, apparently the actual meaning of Waka Waka is blaze, burn brightly, burn well, shine in Swahili.
