Patty Patty, Mi.
You join me here five days in to a world record attempt
for the longest Kumbaya in history.
Twenty
singers of the Kumbaya song sit around this camp fire to
sing an endless loop of Kumbaya from 'Someone's praying
lord' all the way up to 'Someone's stealing my car lord'
and 'Someone's Googling what Kumbaya means lord'.
A
person wearing an 'organiser' T-shirt told our reporter:
"It's
important to allow people to add to this traditional Christian
anthem with new lines. Kumbaya is a living, breathing,
growing song. We have a committee waiting to approve new
lyrics and we can add them into the record attempt within
thirty minutes."
The record attempt is set to continue through the Christmas
season and is scheduled to end on 29th December.
By
the end of the attempt five thousand singers are expected
to have taken part, along with over two hundred thousand
tambourine bangs.
