    Yes, he was kidding.  Those words are actually the chorus to "Smells
    Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana.  Where you in the summer of '92?

    As for the cultural roots discussion of ETM, I would have to agree that
    there is a definite African sound to it, however the brass as well as the
    rhythm does give it a distinctly mariachi-like feel.  What with the state
    of world culture, I would have to see it would be extremly difficult to
    say it was *specifically* influenced by one particular culture.
