United Kingdom Firm Dances to ‘All About the Waste’

A United Kingdom waste and recycling firm decided it’s all about some fun, making a music video industry variation of a Meghan Trainor hit.

JWS Waste took the global smash song, “All About That Bass,” and did their own version, fronted by customer consultant Lynette Wilding and featuring other recycling staff and a troupe of professional dancers, according to the Manchester Evening News.

The track, “All About the Waste,” was written by sales and marketing consultant Alyson Andrew. Wilding has auditioned for British vocal contest television shows.

All About The Waste changes the words from the original song to: “Yeah, it’s pretty clear, we ain’t no glamour pusses. But we can shake it, shake it we’re supposed to do. ‘Cause we’ve got those truck trucks that other firms chase and all the right junk in all the right places.”
