Notes:

Back in 1997, chances are one of the hits you were bumpin’ it to was “Tubthumping” by Chumbawamba. That said, we would like to get you all bumpin’ to some other great hits by the band before you kick your weekend off!

FUN FACT: In England, a ‘tubthumper’ is a “noisy, violent” speaker; whereas in the United States, it means to campaign with passion.
