Harlem Shake vs. Butsekik!

I taught my brothers (from North Carolina, USA) Ben (Thor helmet) and Jimmy (Captain America mask) how to sing the Filipino song "Butsekik" by one my idols, comedian & songwriter Yoyoy Villame.

The story of this song goes that when Yoyoy was young the Filipino-Chinese people he knew would often try to speak to him in Chinese, but since he didn't speak Chinese sometimes as a joke he would just make up Chinese sounding words to speak back to them. He eventually decided he should compose a song made up entirely of the "chinese jibberish" language that he'd invented, and so Butchikik was born!

PS: Some of the Chinese community in Cebu demanded that it be removed from jukeboxes but, according to Villame, a plan to bring the case to court failed because the complainants could not find a single Chinese word in the song.
