The story of how this song was made is hilarious and it's wild that it got so big. If anyone is unaware, here's an excerpt from Wikipedia: "After having spent over two hours recording the A-side and then taking a break, "Kung Fu Fighting" was recorded quickly in the last ten minutes of studio time, in only two takes, due to a three-hour time constraint for the entire session. According to Biddu, "Kung Fu Fighting was the B-side so I went over the top on the 'huhs' and the 'hahs' and the chopping sounds. It was a B-side: who was going to listen?""

[@imaboisir7227]

B side??? A side? What does this mean?

[@DarktheEagle]

@@imaboisir7227 Old records and audio casettes, especially singles, would have an A-side with the main track, then a B-side with a bonus track, where you would literally turn/flip the physical media in the player. B-sides for singles, especially, were more often than not songs that were projected to be less popular than the main song. So he figured nobody was gonna care about the B-side, so not a whole lot of work was put into it.

Fun fact: Kung Fu Fighting was recorded in 10 minutes Edit: apparently this may not be true, someone in the comments knew one of the musicians in the music video

[@KFP_Fanboy]

Kung Fu Panda 3 is the best in the franchise. In Kung Fu Panda 2 (the favorite of most people), Lord Shen attacked the panda village, but there was nobody to save them. In Kung Fu Panda 3, Kai attacks the village and Po has to save them. You cannot say that's not the most genius idea for a third installment of this franchise. One thing that people hate about this movie was the “disappointing” villain defeat. But I don’t think people exactly understand it. Po had the chi of all the pandas and his own chi. Kai usually takes the masters’ bodies along with the chi, but he didn’t when Po gave his chi to Kai. That’s why it was too much. He took the chi of a whole village pandas and a “Kung Fu Panda” at a time without their physical forms. Instead of carrying around more chi amulets, he got loaded with the chi of all those pandas. It makes sense, people overthink it. Also, at the beginning, Oogway told Kai "The more you take, the less you have." Then what happens? Kai dies from taking too much. Also, Po was taught kung fu with food. Then he taught the village of pandas with their talents. The whole "turn you into you" thing wasn't a callback to the beginning of the movie, it was a callback to the beginning of the franchise. The first Kung Fu Panda. Most people like Shen the most, but General Kai is the best villain in my opinion. He may not have been intimidating, but he had really great villain lines. When Shifu said "Oogway, forgive me." Kai held up the chi of Oogway and said "What do you say, Oogway? Do you forgive him?" Also, his music was obviously the best villain music in existence. Not to mention his weapon, fight style, or entrances. Also, the first two villains were chased by Po and the Furious Five. But Kai would find Po and the others no matter where they went. Po even said “There’s nowhere to run.” Kai felt very unstoppable, which was just as good as being intimidating. Another thing I like about Kai is that he was the only villain that never underestimated Po. When Tai Lung met Po and found out he’s the Dragon Warrior, he said “You? Him? He’s a panda. You’re a panda. What are you going to do, big guy? Sit on me?” When Lord Shen met Po, he asked Soothsayer “Do you actually believe this is the warrior destined to defeat me?” But when General Kai met Po, he said “You must be the Dragon Warrior.” I don't even need to talk about comedy or animation in this movie. Everyone already agrees that comedy, and animation in Kung Fu Panda 3 is better than in first two movies. A lot of people complain that the Furious Five didn't do much but I think I need to remind people that this movie is in the Kung Fu Panda franchise. Not "The Adventures of the Furious Five" franchise. I was happy seeing the Furious Five get a lot of spotlight it Kung Fu Panda 2, the movie wouldn’t be half as great without that. But I am extremely happy that they didn’t do the same thing for Kung Fu Panda 3. But I don't get how people think this is the worst or second best in the franchise. I think it's better than Kung Fu Panda 1 and 2 combined.

how do you come up with an idea to release music in such a brilliant way Carl you are a real legend those were really great times everyone learned your kun-fu thanks to this music❤❤

[@pranavbalasubramaniam8805]

“Kung Fu Fighting," released in 1974 by Carl Douglas, is a catchy and upbeat song that often resonates with audiences due to its catchy melody and lively rhythm. While the song's lyrics might seem to focus on martial arts and physical prowess, they can also be interpreted metaphorically. The true meaning of the song lies in embracing personal strength and courage in the face of challenges. The repetitive phrase "Everybody was kung fu fighting" underscores the idea that everyone has their own battles to fight, whether they're physical, emotional, or metaphorical. The song encourages listeners to find their inner strength and face life's adversities with determination and confidence, just as martial artists harness their skills and focus to overcome opponents. In this way, "Kung Fu Fighting" can be seen as an anthem of empowerment and resilience.
