Hocus Pocus (song)
" Hocus Pocus" is a song by the Dutch rock band Focus, written by keyboardist, flautist and vocalist
Thijs van Leer and guitarist Jan Akkerman.

An edited version was released as a single( with" Janis" as the B-side) on the Imperial, Polydor and Blue Horizon labels in Europe in 1971, but failed to chart.
A faster re-recording of the song( titled" Hocus Pocus 2" or" Hocus Pocus II" in some markets) was released in Europe in 1972.
Buoyed by a live performance on the" The Old Grey Whistle Test" in December 1972 and a subsequent barnstorming British club tour, this version rose to No. 20 on the UK charts in late January 1973.
" Hocus Pocus" was also released as a single on the Sire Records label in the United States and Canada in 1973.
It reached No. 9 in the US and No. 18 in Canada during the spring and summer of that year.
The song was given new life when it became the musical signature of the Nike" Write the Future" advertising campaign, shown during the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
That year the single re-entered the UK charts at No. 57 on and the Dutch charts at No. 48.
The song has been covered by the Vandals, and was recorded on their debut LP," When in Rome Do as The Vandals" in 1984, and by Helloween on their album" Metal Jukebox" in 1999.
Hocus Pocus (group)
Hocus Pocus is a Hip Hop/ Jazz band from Nantes, France.
Formed in 1995, their music is a mix of" hip- hopjazzsoul" and" funk".
Originally being 20syl's brainchild, Hocus Pocus was formed in 1995, and gradually gained attention in the late'90s.
The band, however, reached significant commercial and critical success in 2006 with the re-release of 2005 LP" 73 Touches", the" Hip Hop?" single( featuring The Procussions) having hooked many listeners who were curious about its blend of French, English, and acoustic/ electronic elements.
Though quite far removed from legendary bands evolving in that same category( like The Roots), Hocus Pocus' more radio- friendly recipe happened to be very effective.
The band came back in 2007 with a mixed live/ studio LP," Place 54", featuring more international collaborations and another hit single," Vocab!".
