Blur's " Song 2"

This week, we’re turning the amps all the way up and diving deep into Blur’s explosive, ridiculous, accidentally immortal anthem “Song 2.” Diallo & LUXXURY break down how a two-minute blast of blown-out drums, filthy guitars, and one unforgettable “woo-hoo” became one of the loudest pieces of late-90s pop culture. The guys get into Blur’s post-Britpop reinvention, Damon Albarn’s restless creative brain, Graham Coxon’s chaotic guitar energy, and the question at the center of the whole song: was “Song 2” a joke, a parody, or just a perfect rock record by accident? Along the way, they trace how the track jumped from the studio to sports arenas, commercials, video games, trailers, and TV — plus the early signs of the next band Damon Albarn would create. Songs Discussed: "Song 2" - Blur "There's No Other Way" - Blur "I'm Free" - The Soup Dragons "Bettle Bum" - Blur "Sing" - Blur "Sing (Original Version) - Seymore "On Your Own" - Blur "Song 2 (Unplugged Version)" - Blur "All Day All Of The Night" - The Kinks "Hate To Say I Told You So" - The Hives "Woo Hoo" - The Rock-A-Teens "Woo Hoo" - The 5,6,7,8's "Bug Man" - Blur Diallo & LUXXURY talk about music!
