Zididada gets Glam
Written: May 13, 2008
In the latest Superstar to Superstar, Glamazon Beth Phoenix chats with Zididada’s vocalist, Jimmy Colding, about the music business, sports-entertainment and which WWE Superstar is most like a Viking. The Danish indie band’s recent hit, “Take It All,” is the official theme song for WWE’s Judgment Day, which airs live this Sunday, only on pay-per-view.
Beth: Hi guys. It’s nice to meet you.
Jimmy Colding of Zididada: Hey, Beth!
B: So tell me about the meaning of “Zididada.”
Z: “Zididada” really doesn’t mean anything. We took the name from a fairytale city somewhere in Central America — Zididada sounds like it should be coming from that area. The song, “Take It All,” is basically about Danny Linde (lead and rhythm guitars) and I going independent, because we’ve been on a major label for six years. And “Take It All,” is a song about going your own way and doing it the way you believe it should be done. It’s just basically a great rock song first of all, but it’s also a statement from Zididada.
B: So going on your own and discovering yourselves as independents, that involves a great deal of risk. But do you feel that there’s more satisfaction in the results that you guys have had going off on your own [without a major label]? Do you find more satisfaction despite the risk of taking this on without a major label?
