Blur - Song 2 - a song used in a lot of places nowadays.

Blur - Song 2

You must have seen at least one beer commercial with this one. This was the second single from the band's fifth studio album and got to number 1 in the UK charts. The song is exactly 2 minutes and 2 seconds long, and when we know it was the second track on the album, we can easily understand why the song is called "Song 2". One strange fact about this song is that it was actually created to parody American grunge music, ironically it was embraced by the same radio stations whose airplay choices the song was parodying in the first place.

Woo-hoo

I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
No

Woo-hoo
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I'm never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you

I got my head down
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem

Woo-hoo
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Oh yeah
