As you know, we are getting married on Saturday (Woooooop) and we can’t wait to see you there!!
What you probably don’t know is, we have invited the team from Music Wedding Videos to film everyone enjoying the day, singing, dancing and generally having a great time to ‘Mans Not Hot’ by Big Shaq.
Here is the song we’ve chosen for you to get familiar with …
How this works is, the guys will be equipped with printed lyrics and speakers on the day; they’ll be looking for volunteers to sing along to a couple of lines from the track on camera. They’ll then turn the footage into a music video of the wedding day. Don’t worry too much about learning all the words as we mentioned they’ll have some printed on the day and after playing a short section of the song a couple of times you’ll soon pick it up.
You’ll have a few go’s at getting it right, and they’re pretty good at editing to make you look awesome. Your singing voice doesn’t matter either because they’re not going to use the audio – the real song will be played over the video footage of you singing along.
The lyrics are included at the bottom of the page
How up for it are you?
Mad for it!
OK, so you fancy yourself as a bit of a performer or a pop-star in another life?
Here’s what you can do:
- Watch the video
- Learn the lyrics
- Practice in front of the mirror
- Choreograph a dance routine
- Get together with some like-minded guests to do something as a group
We are looking for people to (willingly) come forward beforehand to be given specific lines to learn, and we will then forward everyone their own lyrics to perfect 🙂 If any of you do want to perform something special, please let us know or contact the MWV guys at info@musicweddingvideos.com so they can plan it into the shoot.
Happy to get involved on the day
Here’s what we recommend:
- Watch the video
- Try to learn at least one or two lines from the song
- Grab the MWV guys on the day and let them know you want to get involved
A little bit camera-shy
We realise some people either don’t feel super comfortable in front of cameras, especially video cameras. Don’t worry – the MWV guys are very sensitive to this and won’t force you to get involved if you don’t feel comfortable. But if it’s not too painful, we do hope you can at least give us a smile or a wave so that we can remember you on our special video. And remember – if it’s your singing voice you’re worried about, they don’t actually use that in the final video – you’re just miming along to the real song. Here’s what we recommend:
- Don’t worry too much about learning the lyrics
- On the day, see if you’re in the right mood. If not, just let the MWV guys know if you’d prefer to just be an ‘extra’ without performing, or if you don’t want to be in the video at all.
We think this is a really fun way to record and re-live our big day for years to come and hope you’ll all get involved in some way.
Still not sure how this works?
Here are a couple of examples of a finished video from previous weddings once they have been edited and effects have been put on…
So……..
- Glamorous couple – Check
- Beautiful Location – Check
- Awesome dancing and singing – that’s where you come in
Let’s make this a wedding video to remember!
Love
Laura and Kam

PPS Here are those lyrics…
Yo, Big Shaq, the one and only
Man’s not hot, never hot
Skrrat (GottiOnEm), skidi-kat-kat
Boom
[Verse 1]
Two plus two is four
Minus one that’s three, quick maths
Everyday man’s on the block
Smoke trees (ah)
See your girl in the park
That girl is a uckers
When the ting went quack-quack-quack
You man were ducking (you man ducked)
Hold tight, Asznee (my brudda)
He’s got the pumpy (big ting)
Hold tight, my man (my guy)
He’s got the frisbee (shew)
I trap, trap, trap on the phone
Movin’ that cornflakes
Rice Krispies
Hold tight, my girl Whitney (my G)
On, on, on, on, on the road doin’ ten toes
Like my toes (like my toes)
You man thought I froze
I see a peng girl, then I pose (chilin’)
If she ain’t on it, I ghost
Hah, look at your nose (check your nose, fam)
You donut
Nose long like garden hose
[Chorus]
I tell her man’s not hot
I tell her man’s not hot
The girl told me, “Take off your jacket”
I said, “Babes, man’s not hot” (never hot)
I tell her man’s not hot (never hot)
I tell her man’s not hot (never hot)
The girl told me, “Take off your jacket”
I said, “Babes, man’s not hot” (never hot)
[Verse 2]
Hop out the four-door with the .44
It was one, two, three and four (us, man)
Chillin’ in the corridor (yo)
Your dad is forty-four (uh)
And he’s still callin’ man for a draw (look at him)
Let him know
When I see him
I’m gonna spin his jaw (finished)
Take man’s Twix by force (take it)
Send man’s shop by force (send him)
Your girl knows I’ve got the sauce (flexin’)
No ketchup (none)
Just sauce (saucy)
Raw sauce
Ah, yo, boom, ah
[Refrain]
The ting goes skrrrahh (ah)
Pap, pap, ka-ka-ka (ka)
Skidiki-pap-pap (pap)
And a pu-pu-pudrrrr-boom (boom)
Skya (ah)
Du-du-ku-ku-dun-dun (dun)
Poom, poom
You don’ know
[Chorus]
I tell her man’s not hot (man’s not)
I tell her man’s not hot (never hot)
The girl told me, “Take off your jacket”
I said, “Babes, man’s not hot” (never hot)
I tell her man’s not hot
I tell her man’s not hot (never hot)
The girl told me, “Take off your jacket”
I said, “Babes, man’s not hot”
[Bridge]
Man can never be hot (never hot)
Perspiration ting (spray dat)
Lynx Effect (come on)
You didn’t hear me, did you? (nah)
Use roll-on (use that)
Or spray (shhh)
But either way, A-B-C-D (alphabet ting)
[Refrain]
The ting goes skrrrahh (ah)
Pap, pap, ka-ka-ka (ka)
Skidiki-pap-pap (pap)
And a pu-pu-pudrrrr-boom (boom)
Skya (ah)
Du-du-ku-ku-dun-dun (dun)
Poom, poom
You don’ know
[Outro]
Big Shaq
Man’s not hot
I tell her man’s not hot (never hot)
40 degrees and man’s not hot (come on)
Yo, in the sauna
Man’s not hot (never hot)
Yeah, skidika-pap-pap
