    So here's my theory on the lore: After Cher successfully turned back time using her time machine she introduced recording technology to the ancient peoples, allowing these iconic tracks to be recorded using modern processes.

    About 10,000 years passed between the 1st and 2nd Mambos, but only a few thousand years passed between the 2nd and 3rd mambos, then only 510 years until the 4th mambo, then only 170 years until the 5th Mambo. On average, each Mambo comes out after about 1/3 the wait for the previous Mambo. If we extrapolate, we can estimate the following timeline:
    2056: Mambo No. 6
    2075: Mambo No. 7
    2082: Mambo No. 8
    2084: Mambo No. 9
    2085: Mambo No. 10
    From that point, the Mambos keep accelerating. Sometime between 2085 and 2086, we'll reach an asymptote known as the "Mambolarity", during which the Mambos will proliferate towards infinity.

    I remember back in 14,000 BCE when Rock Scraping On Other Rock (Once) came out, everyone was rushing to the stores to get their hands on the copies. Even in 2023, H.Sapiens remains my favorite band of all time, and I'm actually going to see them live this year! I really miss the classic rock, not Bon Jovi or anything like that, but back in the day when people used actual rocks to make rock music. Ed Sheeran just doesn't hit the same as this did.

I thought H. Sapiens was a one hit wonder. Then they came out with Rock Banging on Other Rock (Once) and I was blown away. The innovation was incredible. It still brings a tear to my eyes, and I even enjoy most of the covers by other bands

      Something should be here which was pretty underappreciated. In the 1400s, there was an artist called Count Le Gavank. He wrote absolute BANGERS. The one that should be here is his hit song, Glo-bo-glaeg. The instrumentation is AMAZING, and the singing was just revolutionary. So underappreciated.

    overall very accurate but I did notice one mistake: the cover for "Britain (Is Where I'm From)" is actually from a remaster - you can tell because it features the iconic london routemaster bus which wasn't actually introduced until 1956. this is however a reasonable mistake to make because for some reason the British government attempted to destroy as many copies as possible and consequently original copies are extremely difficult to get a hold of today. Strangely, no one really knows why this happened - it seems kind of weird that the British government would have such a big problem with a normal British dude from Britain just singing about how much he loves Britain

      If i also remember correctly Herbie Bonson was only recognised as song of the year in Europe, whereas in most other countries outside of it recognised She Loves You. It nearly started a war but unfortunately one of the countries realised they were allied with another country on the opposing sides, so it had to be called off.

    Fun Fact: Because of the rather interesting things that Jöhn Smith demanded from the listeners in the song, Britain (Is Where I'm From) was the first song to be banned from the public radio stations by the British government.
    Jöhn Smith never reacted to his hit being removed from the radios, because he mysteriously disappeared right after the ban.
    He was later found in 1983, around 40 years later, when he claimed to have returned from the Falklands war and wanted to distance himself from his past. He then worked as a English-Spanish-German translator for Ministry of Defence up until his death in 1994.

    I showed this to my special ed class and one of the kids jumped up on his desk and said "I can do da cwunch!" He then attempted to put his hips on his leg and his leg on his back and fell off the desk slamming his head onto the floor and breaking his arm. He was in hospital for 2 months and just returned to class last week. His first words to me were "I coulda done da cwunch if that stupid desk didn't fall over". I scheduled a meeting with him, his parents and the principal to explain to him that he is never to attempt the crunch again. He got quite upset during the meeting and pulled his leg behind him so his foot would touch his back immediately breaking his leg bone. He was clearly in horrible pain but still said "I told ya! Now I'm doing da cwunch!" He is back in hospital and will not be returning to class. He is now being moved from the special education class to an entire special education school where they have better facilities for a person like him. It is crazy how one random little joke in a CZcams video changed his entire life. I suppose we are lucky he didn't hear the Ten Foot High Club part. Knowing him he wouldn't have understood the joke and would have tried to find a way to get on top of the school so he could also be in the Ten Foot High Club.
