Most of the original members were also in the Preston band General Havoc.
Their name comes from a term that refers to Indian immigrants that move to England, in that they often own street corner stores. Their music is a fusion of Indian music, British indie rock, and electronic dance.
In 1997, Cornershop shot into the UK charts with the song 'Brimful of Asha' reaching number 60! Things changed when DJ Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim) remixed the track for re-release in 1998. The remix topped the chart, selling over 200,000 copies in 7 days! The track featured lyrics about Bollywood playback singer, Asha Bhosle.

This album is so overlooked/underrated. I think it's a pinnacle of greatness for a certain vibe
@bunnykrisfalowski
This is a beautiful video and I like the song... but, people, get the album for the last track Don't Shake It. With it's rolling theme-from-Rainbow bass, Vince Guaraldi piano, warm Hammondy organ, and Bubbley Kaur doing her thing all over it, it is the GREATEST SUMMER TIME SOUND ever ever EVER!!! I can NOT stop playing it! Please. Do it!!! The moon will stay round and the sun will shine I Guaraldi-ntee! *happy*
@Natyxota182
It's magic... I love this song... Makes my mind fly!
@TheFlowerpot26
such fabulous lyrics !!! Beats are so on point with the video. Love it!!!
@mallenalla
Tthis really makes me ashamed i haven't been more updated - a whole bunch of lovely, lovely, lovely cornershop stuff out on youtube for more than a year and i had no idea!
@mellymomolove
Excellent!! its always nice to hear Cornershop :) ~*~Bless~*~
@earthbound7711
Love the song and the video. You guys rock. You guys should go to India and film a companion video for this. It might show how we are different yet the same. I always loved getting my hair cut in India for some reason, felt like a window into the everyday of India, something that was rather elusive to me as a traveler.
@musha68000
I love this song! The video is awesome work too! Oh yeah! :DD
@theblackout27
Great video, great song, GREAT BAND!
@angelscry4592
Amazing song, is the instrumental version available? It would be really nice as it is with Topknot and Natch
