Cup theme fails to strike right chord with fans in Brazil

The official World Cup song is definitely striking a chord-the wrong one with many in host country Brazil.

Since the recent release of FIFA's We Are One (Ole Ola), hordes of fans in Brazil have been slamming the official 2014 Cup theme. Many expressed their frustration on Twitter under the tag #VoltaWakaWaka-a plea for the return of the widely-loved song that Colombian artist Shakira performed for the 2010 tournament in South Africa.

Although Brazilian Claudia Leitte is also featured in the official theme, critics say they don't understand why Cuban-American rapper Pitbull and Bronx-born Puerto Rican singer Jennifer Lopez were chosen for the song when there are so many other great musicians in the land of bossa nova.
