- Kosovo_(song) abstract ""Kosovo" is a parody of the Beach Boys hit song "Kokomo". It was produced in 1999 by Seattle radio DJ Bob Rivers. The song harshly criticizes US involvement in the Kosovo War:We'll kick some ass,and then we'll see how it goes,and then we really don't know.Good luck to Kosovo.According to Rivers, "...the intent of the song was to mock my own country for its bullying ways around the world. The idea was to point out how casually the U.S. plays World Police. The song takes on the persona of the U.S. government, ridiculing the fact that we push others around without much concern."In May 2005 a group of Norwegian peacekeepers in Kosovo parodied the music video for "Kokomo," using Rivers' song with their own hand-held video camera footage. In the parody, the soldiers imitate dance moves and scenes from the original music video in desolate war-torn areas around Kosovo. It was widely broadcast in the Balkans, prompting the Norwegian ambassador to formally apologize.Rivers stated about the music video, "The song has been stolen...and I wish there were a way to stop it."The last few seconds show one of the soldiers being hit by a car, but that has been cut in many of the video postings. Also, when subtitles were put on the song in Serbia, they mistakenly replaced "Milosevic" with the name of a 14th-century Serb hero. The soldiers had all left the Norwegian Army by the time the investigation took place so no further action was taken.".
