Free Music Video: "Wavin' Flag" is a song by Somali-Canadian artist K'naan from his album Troubadour, reaching NR 2 on the Canadian Hot 100. A remake by a supergroup of Canadian artists, credited as Young Artists for Haiti, became a charity single, with this new version going straight to NR 1 on the Canadian charts. The song also appears on the soundtrack for the video games NBA 2K10 and 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa. The song was chosen as Coca-Cola's promotional anthem for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, hosted by South Africa. The English version was released as "Wavin' Flag (The Celebration Mix)" by K'naan and many other bilingual and country-specific versions have been released. After the release of the Celebration Mix prior to the World Cup, "Wavin' Flag" reached number one in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria as well as number two in the United Kingdom, Canada, Italy and Ireland.
