Tubthumping is a fucking horrible pox on humanity.
I concede that you have a right to be publicly wrong
I definitely have been, but it’s not about this. ;)
Chumbawumba are actually badass.
Edit: The Day The Nazi Died - Chumbawumba
They might be, but I still maintain that that song is horrible.
I don’t have the ability now, but I will take the time later today to listen to this linked song and reply to you with my thoughts. Thanks for sharing, regardless.
EDIT: Had a chance to listen to this one. Very cool! Has like a They Might Be Giants mixed with a folk tune vibe. And it’s always a good time to get in a history lesson. I liked it! This song is like the antithesis of Tubthumping. Wild it’s the same band.
The album Tubthumper was made as a complicated joke. They're an anarchist collective who sold out, delivered a dozen commercially viable songs that were still about unions and electoralism and homelessness, then went right back to what they were doing beforehand.
Yes. I’d rather listen to whatever that mic is recording than Tubthumping.
I dunno if it's the worst song on that album, but it's the most repetitive by far.
While ironically Chumbawumba are anarchist punks who are more in line with Crass
