Who orginally sung the song "Word up". Korn did a remake of it and I can't figure out who did the orginal. Help me out it's driving me nuts :scratch:

if it's the one by Cameo, well, that oughtta be pretty interesting.

However, it could also be the one by Ozark Henry, but I can't remember how that one went.

BTW, Google.com is the greatest. Found it it 10 seconds. Don't let Grantsdale see you...

I'm a big Korn fan too but to me and a friend of mine it just seem weird that they did a song like that. The music video was kinda funny.

It was Cameo that did it back in 1986 or 1987 I think. I like Korn alot but hated the song in the 80's and still do now. At least the bass player kicks butt in this one.
