The Theme for FIFA WC 2010 is Shakira's waka waka..

“official” World Cup song has been named by FIFA and this time it is from the Colombian born singer Shakira. She was recently given the title of official song for the 2010 World Cup. In fact, Shakira will perform the song with South African band Freshlyground at the World Cup. But if you ask anyone else what the official World Cup song is for this year’s event they will tell you it is K’naan’s “Wavin Flag”. The Canadian hip-hop artist song has been featured in numerous FIFA promotional videos and commercials as they led everyone to beleive that it was the official song. Apparently, Wavin Flag is Coca Cola’s official anthem for the World Cup and Shakira’s track is FIFA’s official song. I’m a little disappointed to say the least, as I think K’naan’s song is not only superior in every way it more embodies the feel of this year’s event in South Africa. Shakira’s latin flavor should have waited for when the event goes to Brazil.
