[CW: music with br*tish people in it]

Like I know they're old so this isn't a "new" revelation or anything but still lmao. I'd only ever previously heard tubthumping in like a fucken Kroger or whatever but one time I was on Spotify and looked up communist playlists bc I was bored and there was one that had like 12 fucking Chumbawumba songs and i felt emotions that i did NOT know how to process

Edit: i know absolutely nothing else about the band, like i haven't looked into their backgrounds or whatever so i don't know HOW based they are, but from what I gathered they're like,, at worst, socdem which at the very least is uncommon in terms of western music

    the lion sleeps tonight is about communism. It was written by communists and played at rallies. The lion is the working class and the lion waking is revolution
