I wish the one song people knew from Chumbawamba had been this one.


Update: Did you know Chumbawamba had a blog these days? Highlights include why they're not playing "That Song" at present and why it is that fascists have clean feet.

That's a pretty catchy tune.

I actually much prefer this version.

For a variety of odd personal reasons, "Jesus in Vegas" is my favorite Chumbawamba song, although I do take a perverse delight in recommending "Mary Mary" to my fellow Catholics.

I'm really very fond of "Mary, Mary" and if pressed to pick a favourite, I think I'd go with "Bad Squire" or "Song of the Times". Unsurprisingly, I'm an enormous fan of the traditional folk-song like pieces.

I must confess I'm kinda fond of the "T song" as well. It's the first song of theirs I heard, and it convinced me to buy the album, which convinced me to buy other albums, and so on.

I've seen this before, and I'm not sure I've seen any of their other work yet.

Most people know them for an unrepresentative 1997 song of theirs called "Tubthumping" that happened to reach number 2 on the British and number 6 on the US charts, and still regularly crops up on collections of hits of the nineties.
