"Champagne Showers"
Song

"Champagne Showers" is a song performed by American electro recording duo LMFAO featuring vocals from English singer-songwriter Natalia Kills. It was released as the second single from the album Sorry for Party Rocking (2011).

Music video

The music video for the song was uploaded to YouTube on June 8, 2011.[1] The music video is a continue from their previous single Party Rock Anthem, but instead of the movie set 28 Days Later, it was From Dusk Till Dawn. The video's introduction is quite similar to the "Party Rock Anthem" music video. An opening caption states that Redfoo and Sky Blu have become shuffling zombies and are now in search of the perfect party in downtown Transylvania. They exit their vehicle in an empty car park and Redfoo opens out a map on the vehicle's hood. While arguing about their next destination, the shufflers are grabbed by an eccentric looking man (similar to the time they were jumped upon during Party Rock Anthem) who pulls them behind the personalized Kia Soul. This time however they don't take it lightly and start to hit the stranger with the map which is now torn thanks to the assault. The 'beating' soon ceases and the assailant is shown in full view. He recognizes the LMFAO crew, calling them the "shuffle guys". While the duo are justifying this nickname, the stranger appears to be day-dreaming yet focusing intensely on the shufflers... He invites them to a party; and after much persistence and also the promise of shots, LMFAO decide to attend this club.

The actual song begins and the video changes to the duo entering the club and the viewer is shown that the guests comprise of many of the original shufflers (including The Shuffle Bot and also Quest Crew - winners of America's Best Dance Crew season 3) who are already busy party rocking. LMFAO join the dance-floor and the video alternates between shots of the dancers and shots of Natalia Kills. However, little do Redfoo and Sky Blu know that this party is hosted by a crew of blood-suckers who feast on their guests... This is made evident when one of the women bares her fangs and even more so when Redfoo cuts his finger while trying to open a champagne bottle - this grabs the attention of the vampires who begin to flirt with him. The guys remain oblivious to this notion up to the moment when the women form a disturbingly demonic group behind them. Natalia Kills acts as a sexy high-placed vampire, and almost gets seduced by Redfoo, but then throws him into her pack of blood-hungry female vampires

The next scene involves Redfoo, Sky Blu, The Shuffle Bot and Q running towards the exit. The door suddenly bursts open and a character representing Jesus(David Guetta) strides in wearing Beats by Dr. Dre. He presents the group with crates filled with bottles of "Holy Champagne", and they use these drinks against the vampires, creating a huge champagne shower, referring to the song name. The music video ends with the dancers party rocking in victory and the Jesus character high-fiving the entire crew.

Critical reception

The song has been met with mixed reviews among critics and fans alike, mainly due to the high pitched use of autotune[citation needed]. Robert Copsey of Digital Spy UK gave the track 2 out of 5 stars, saying, "During our recent interview with LMFAO, the uncle-nephew duo not only described their new single as "the ultimate party song", and insisted that it would "change the way that people view champagne".
