I've also been super entertained by the Chumbawumba story - I love that someone reached out to the band. And the fact that Winston was surprised a journo did that: Chumbawumba are known for that one song, but they've got these anarchic, anti-establishment punk roots - anyone who knew that would know they'd hate the idea of Winnie using any of their songs. (Not to mention: using the "I get knocked down" refrain is super on the nose. Be more creative, Winnie! Might I recommend "Everybody (Backstreets Back)" as an alternative?)
Naw, thanks for the shout out, Chris :)
