What’s the name of the “woo hoo” song by The OffSpring? I’m guessing it’s not Woo Hoo. ---

Are you sure it’s Offspring? Blur has a song called “Song 2” that has the refrain Whoo-Hoo ---

That might explain why I couldn’t find it. ---

Does _Song 2_ have a proper title? I ask, because Tool had a song that got radio play as _Song 1_ even though it was called _Stink Fist_ on the album. ---

“Song 2” is a proper song title. Song 1 by Tool…hmmm sounds like your local radio station might have taken offense to “Stink Fist” Perhaps the station is run by Tipper Gore, our future First Lady (cringe) ---

What about the rap song “Hoo-dee-hoo”. I believe it is by Master P. I dont know for sure though. ---
