Who can get away with writing an entire song about Nintendo's exercise video game Wii Fit? None other than the legend, the myth, the modern rock hero: Wicked Celtics.
Press:
“Okay, I take back everything I’ve ever said about Wii Fit being for mostly women because this video is as Manly as it gets. Wicked Celtics has put together a music video and song featuring what apparently is manliest game of all time, which is Nintendo’s exercise game.I do WANT to be hardcore and I will get on board! Watch the music video, but be careful; your testosterone is going to boil!” - slashgamer.com
“Verdammt, das Jahr ist noch keine zwei Tage alt, aber ich habe schon einen Ohrwurm im Kopf. Wicked Celtics nennen sich die Interpreten des wohl ersten Rock Songs in dem Wii Fit besungen wird. Ab in die ganze News mit Euch…” - onipepper.de
lyrics
Boom! You wanna be hardcore
Well, get on board
A little white board
On my living room floor
It'll work you out
It'll work you down
It'll work you right
Into the best shape of your life
Wii Fit as long as I live
Wii Fit forever
You wanna look real hot
You wanna be not fat
You wanna feel real good
But most of all be not fat
Well, this ain't no game
It's a way of life
For those who are pumped
And those who are psyched to get
Wii Fit as long as I live
Wii Fit forever
No, don't stow it away
Don't hide it away
Cause you'll forget it
You gotta get it, stretch it,
push it, crunch it, got it?
