I'm getting up to go to school today, I come down stairs and my mom has the news on. So, I'm not paying to much attention to it (I think they were talking about surfing) and then they start playing this song in the background that I know I've heared before. Didn't take me to long to figure out that they were playing the opening of We Are One from Ignition. :eek: Which is suppressing because you never hear songs form albums before Smash in the media.

About a month ago, a local channel here closed the News program with the clip of TKAA. I couldn't believe it and so did my sister. We had never seen that clips were played on the News. It was quiet strange...

I once heard Blackball while my dad was watching the news so I ran to see what the news was about, and it was about some fashion thing, Weird?

Meh... I don't really get all jolly when I hear offspring songs on television.... but that's because they usually play their most popular stuff. When I hear something before smash, that kicks ass.
Haha imagine hearing Hopeless... or even Sorority Bitch on television hahaha.

when i hear the offspring on the radio or tv or something around here, i usually get pretty up about it because this city lacks good rock... the only station that plays them regularly that we get in greensboro is from raleigh(state capital, less constricting), idk about the charlotte stations, they don't come in where i live...

during the dew actions sports tour, at each stop they obsessively played can't repeat right before and right after commercial breaks and when they were showing the scores... though that clearly had a lot to do with the fact that they headlined at the opening dew action stop right before they went on the warped tour... it had to be in louisville... i had tickets... i hate life... not really... but that summer sucked pretty good.

I was about to ask the same question.
I think Sorority Bitch is the clip that we see on the CMVC DVD...the part with Dexter on drums and Greg on bass when they are really young
Although I'm not sure...

I think Sorority Bitch is the one when Dexter's playing guitar, I thought I heard him sing sorority bitch just as it was fading out, but that could have just been me

I think it's more likely to be that part with Dex playing guitar and singing.

I listen to a conservative AM talk radio station (550AM WKRC -55KRC.COM) in Cincinnati in the morning as I am getting ready for work to get the news for the day. They have played on several occasions Offspring rifs for the bumper music between interviews and stories. Songs that I can remember hearing on that station are She's got issues, TKAA and Gone Away. I think that one of the producers is an Offspring fan and it is usually when he is the only one producing that I get to hear Offspring on that station.
Later in the day I switch to our FM Alternative Station Zrock 97.3.

But there's no singing and that's from 1983. The part that's actually a song is when Dex plays a solo.
