Can you identify this song?
« on: February 04, 2010, 09:30:19 PM »
It's an oldie, chorus goes like "oh oh na na // oh oh na na...". I keep confusing it with all the young dudes if that helps. It's a really famous mainstream song but i can't for the life of me pin it down. :s

It depresses me greatly to hear that described as an oldie, especially as I was 18 at the time :(

How do you think the rest of us feel? :lol:

(I was in my mid 30s I guess)

I even sung it live ... (we was making an effort to "get down with the kids".... amazingly it worked in the gig or so we did it in :lol:)

When I worked in Soundcontrol in Birmingham, they were one of the many "local legends" that used to come in, perturbed that I obviously had no clue who they were  :lol:

Then there was dave Hill, who everyone would pretend to have no idea who he was, since he'd introduce himself as Dave Hill from Slade. :lol:

Yeah, 1996 an oldie?!  That was, like.... yesterday in music terms.

The other day I was thinking I must dig out that "new" Sabbath album, Reunion, I've only listened to it once or twice..... turned out it was released in 1998.  I couldn't work out what had happened to the last decade.  :?

Hey, all I know is the onomatopoeia in the chorus and you people expect me to know how old the song is?  :lol:

Still, I'd have been 7 when it came out so that makes it an oldie in my book.
