“How Much Is The Fish?” is a song by German Techno group Scooter. It was released in June 1998 as the lead single from their fifth studio album No Time to Chill. It is the first song to feature Axel Coon. “How Much Is The Fish?” samples the song “Zeven Dagen Lang” (Seven days long) by the Dutch band Bots. The melody originates from a traditional Celtic Son ar Chistr played on Alan Stivell’s 1970 album Reflets. The title is derived from lyrics in the song “Buffalo” by Anglo-Irish indie group Stump, taken from the 1986 mini-album Quirk Out. The background music sample comes from the album version of the song Paradox from the German band 666.
