Zinedine Zidane's head butt might not have gone down too well with a lot of people. But the act has gone on to become an inspiration for three musicians to compose a song on it, reports CNBC-TV18. Zinedine Zidane would never have dreamt that his outburst at the World Cup finals would inspire the Plage associates to come out with a song! Titled Coup de Boule, that's French for head-butt this song initially e-mailed to some 50 people, has been posted on the Web. French radio SkyRock is putting it on its play-list and record labels and ringtone sellers are fighting for its rights. So what really inspired them to make a song on an issue that was making everyone go up in arms.. Just a few days down the line and this song is already creating waves. Big labels could fork out as much as EUR 100,000 for the rights of the head-butt song. There are also plans of making versions in English, Spanish and Italian. Clearly, a case of finding inspiration in things not so musical! source: moneycontrol.com
"What really amazed me is that France had been so shocked by the Zizou event, and especially, that it had been such a drama. We thought that it wasn't that dramatic, on the contrary, it's a rather great exit. So we needed to put the event back in its context, it's not that serious," said Franck Lascombes, Producer and Composer.
