Seriously. The only time I listen to FM radio is when I take my wife’s car to get an oil change. So maybe a total of twenty minutes driving time once every six months or so. Every single time, this song comes on. I don’t get it. It was a one hit wonder from like 25 years ago. How is it still getting that much airplay?!
I just checked it out and I can tell you I’ve never heard this song before in my life.
So you are saying you don’t know what it’s like?
Man I hate to say this but it’s probably because you don’t listen to the late 90’s music… what I listened to the is now considered classic/retro. I fell you OP I hope he is still too.
I’m 43, late 90’s were my college days. I can guarantee you I listened to a lot or music back then.
This may have been popular in the US, but this is nothing like what my 90’s sounded like.
ok
It was US alt rock, I dunno how well it traveled. It was one of the first songs (that I remember, anyway) to use sound effects to censor the dirty words on the radio edit, rather than a beep or mute. Which was actually a good idea, because it made it sound natural, like it was just part of the song.
It wasn’t a bad song, I guess, I remember liking it well enough at the time. I just don’t think it was a good enough song to still be playing as much as it is.
Same, maybe because I’m in the UK
Song plays twice a day on the radio station my work is always tuned to. I only just learned awhile ago that Everlast is the same dude rapping in “Jump Around”.
@ilovededyoupiggy For me, it’s always Mr. Brightside by The Killers. I feel like they’re always playing that song on the radio, regardless of the time or place.
Yeah, that one has a lot of staying power too.
