Tubthumping is a fucking horrible pox on humanity.

I concede that you have a right to be publicly wrong

I definitely have been, but it’s not about this. ;)

They might be, but I still maintain that that song is horrible.

I don’t have the ability now, but I will take the time later today to listen to this linked song and reply to you with my thoughts. Thanks for sharing, regardless.

The album Tubthumper was made as a complicated joke. They're an anarchist collective who sold out, delivered a dozen commercially viable songs that were still about unions and electoralism and homelessness, then went right back to what they were doing beforehand.

Yes. I’d rather listen to whatever that mic is recording than Tubthumping.

While ironically Chumbawumba are anarchist punks who are more in line with Crass

I dunno if it's the worst song on that album, but it's the most repetitive by far.
