"Helele"
Song

"Helele" is a song by South African singer Velile Mchunu and Danish percussion duo Safri Duo. It was released on 7 May 2010 as only new single from Safri Duo's Greatest Hits album.[1] The song is the official trailer song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup broadcasted on German television channel RTL and Switzerland's Schweizer Fernsehen and Télévision Suisse Romande in June–July.[2][3] "Helele" is based on the 1971 song "Aieaoa" by French producer Daniel Vangarde and Belgian producer Jean Kluger in the group Yamasuki. It was famously covered by Belgian group Black Blood in 1975 and English girl group Bananarama in 1981. "Helele" peaked at number one in Switzerland, number two in Germany and number eight in Austria.

On 29 August 2010, "Helele" has won an award for "Best International Single of the Summer" during the 2010 Bydgoszcz Hit Festival in Poland.[4]
