crazy frog MPEG videos and wallpapers, ringtones, themes, pictures from Jamster. Lots of Crazy Frog News
Love it or hate it, there's just no stopping this amphibian phenomenon. Not happy with being the biggest ringtone in the world, the Crazy Frog is now releasing a single, released May 16.
German club meisters 'Bass Bumpers' have taken the Jamster Crazy Frog ringtone and merged it seamlessly with Axel F - the theme tune from Beverley Hills Cop.
The Croydon Guardian has 10 copies of Crazy Frog - Axel F up for grabs.
W32/Crog.worm computer virus (likely a contraction of Crazy Frog) starts to spread via p2p and MSN Messenger, exploiting the Crazy Frog's notoriety with a promise of an animation depicting his demise.
This is the song that is set to spawn a whole new genre of pop as the most famous frog since Kermit hops up to the mic. The Crazy Frog ringtone has been entertaining and infuriating in equal measure and will now be leapfrogging into the U.K. Top 10 singles chart. Be prepared to be blown away by both the original radio mix and the Tadpole remix.
It all started in a pub (the Inn On The Pond, if you need the name). Ex-Virgin Radio breakfast DJ Daryl Denham, his producer, Trevor Jordan and Radio One Top 40 presenter, Wes Butters, were having a drink when an ad for the Crazy Frog ringtone came on the TV.
The seed was sown and the very next day Daryl phoned his friend Maurice Cheetham, who has a studio in Liverpool, and the four formed Pondlife. Daryl and Maurice immediately started work on the track and, at the turn of the New Year, Trevor and Wes joined them in the studio to complete the froggie sensation.
When Wes played the track on his early show on Radio One, Chris Moyles heard it and declared it a surefire hit. "You either love it or hate it, there's no in between," says Wes.
What's next for Pondlife? "Well, if it becomes a hit I reckon we should follow it up with 'Frog On The Tyne, " says Daryl.
A recent online poll revealed that the ring tone had been downloaded 1 million times.

Lauren Dimmick tore open the presents on her ninth birthday, but only one stood out. Sitting in front of her was a spanking-new mobile phone.
"I'd wanted one for ages," says Lauren, now 10. "All my friends had one. My mum and dad take it in turns to buy my top-up cards so I'm not allowed to phone or text my friends very often."
The UK's first mobile specially designed for children was withdrawn from sale by distributor Communic8 earlier this year after a Government report raised health concerns. The MyMo phone was aimed at four- to eight-year-olds to use in an emergency.
But busy mother Lorraine Jackson (pictured below) thinks her children's safety is the priority. She gave both her daughters their first mobiles six months ago and now Lorraine, 43, has total peace of mind, able to contact 10-year-old Emily and Holly, seven, wherever they are.
"It's made me feel a lot more secure, knowing I can check they're OK," says Lorraine, from Red House Farm, Sunderland.
Lorraine, who works at the Gosforth Marriott, gets irritated by marketing ploys on TV encouraging children to download expensive ringtones. The Crazy Frog obsession recently swept the nation and is about to made into a hit record. An equally irksome character, Chick Sweety, plans to take over where the mad amphibian leaves off.
Not many children bother to read the small print at the bottom of the screen; all they have to do is dial a number and - voila! - Ringtone on the phone...and three more pounds of some child's phone credit drops into the Crazy Frog bigwigs' already bulging wallets.
