Chumbawamba 17 Years, 2 Months ago

Regular visitors will know that I championed Chumbawamba and their brilliant Tubthumping but may not have heard their earlier track, another Tip Sheet front pager, which I wanted them to release as the global followup to Tubthumping. I'm still convinced that, if they had done so, they would still be a massive global band instead of a one hit wonder.

The fact they had limited chart success is irrelevant. They had/have a massive fan base and continued long after with many successful tours. Who cares about chart hits? They were anti establishment and anti pop. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

I loved them, first for chucking water over Two Jags Prescott and also when General Motors paid them $100,000 to use the song "Pass It Along" for a Pontiac Vibe television advertisement in 2002 and then they gave the money to the anti-corporate activist groups Indymedia and CorpWatch

Oh and there tubthumping song wasn't bad either!
