Jock Jams We Can’t Live Without (Go Blazers!)

0 Comments
     
Tags:

69 Boyz, “Tootsee Roll”
The imagery here—you go, mounds of oceanic chocolate flesh—is totally unbeatable, and the fact little kids dance to it always makes us laugh.

EMF, “Unbelievable”
I used to have this recurring nightmare where this and Jesus Jones’ “Right Here Right Now” were the only songs in the future. It was a terrible future, but I’m over it now.

Gary Glitter, “Rock and Roll (Part 2)”
Our favorite celebrity perv delivers the easiest sing-along song in history. “Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh—HEY!—duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh!” God, we could sing that all day long.

Blur, “Song 2”
Jock Jams often come in twos, apparently. Here we find Blur ripping off American indie rock and somehow scoring a stadium hit. Gooooooaaaaaalllll!

John Tesh, The old NBA on NBC theme song
John Tesh you fucking genius among men! Not only did you totally kill it at Red Rocks, but there’s nothing that gets us more pumped than your timeless b-ball jam!
