Yep. The man has to sleep and eat, I reckon.

That's pretty funny considering it was written to be a parody to begin with.

And I was gonna say that this song strikes me as good for hockey games, sports hilight reels, maybe a movie trailer with stuff blowing up...and not much else.

Just my opinion but aside from its energy (and a vibe kinda borrowed from Nirvana) I don't see much going on in this song or with Blur in general...

Well, actually, they rarely sound the same way twice. Blur is absolutely brilliant in that they can take on any genre, make it their own, then completely take the piss out of it.

Frontman Damon Albarn's Gorillaz and The Good, the Bad, and the Queen are also right up there at the rank of Genius in that respect.

Quickly turning into a staple at any athletic event. It's fun to see all the non-rockers jumping around singing, "Whoo hoo!" after a goal or touchdown.

I still love this song despite it's million times a day rotation back in 1997-1998. But Blur is a great band anyway.
