Kung Fu Fighting was released in 1974 by Jamaican-British singer Carl Douglas and became a worldwide number one disco hit during the 1970s martial arts craze. Its catchy chorus and playful lyrics kept it alive in films, cartoons, adverts and later Kung Fu Panda, where it was covered for a new generation. Online, the short chorus was clipped for soundboards and meme edits because the hook is instantly recognizable even without the full song, and it still signals a lighthearted fight rather than real violence.
