London: Woo hoo! With its familiar, heavy guitar sound, this is Song 2 of the 90s Britpop band Blur, the arch-rivals of Oasis who were always at odds over whose song was better. But as Britpop fans know, they lost this song war and were constantly mocked until they released the album Blur in 1997, which contained songs like Beetlebum and Song 2, which would become a huge hit and become Blur’s biggest song.

According to Thai News Agency, this song was born out of sarcasm and a desire to poke fun at the music culture that was popular in America, Grunge, by using the heavy and raw guitar sound that the band Nirvana used. But the most funny point is that this song became a big hit and was liked by Americans. Moreover, the band didn’t even think to name it. The name Song 2 came from the song being placed on the second track of the album.

It created quite a stir and a stir for the band, peaking at number 6 on the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks for 26 weeks and number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. It effectively erased any notion that a band like theirs could not succeed in America, with the band members still wondering how it all happened.
