How Bizarre just didn't sound like anything else. So when it came out a lot of people went ‘what the f... is this’ because it just sounded so odd,” recalls New Zealand music stalwart Simon Grigg, who funded and released the song, co-writen by Fuemana and producer Alan Jansson, on his independent label Huh! Records in 1995.
“But when you hear it two or three times on the radio, all of a sudden it just sounds fresh. And, now, you listen to top 40 radio and pretty much everything sounds the same - they're all versions of the same thing.
“And then you get a song which sounds completely different and bang! People love it.”
