00:07Oh yeah, it just changed everything.
00:09If anybody's ever heard that song, you know exactly what you're talking about.
00:11Even if you did...
00:13They wrote one song that went around the world.
00:16Is Oh Yeah the definitive 80s song?
00:19It's definitely one of them.
00:20I don't think Americans think of Oh Yeah even as a song particularly.
00:24It's more like a Pavlovian trigger.
00:26You get what it means because it's bounced around the culture enough.
00:30It made its big splash in this movie, Varys viewers, day off.
00:35That was like a wow.
00:36You get some goose pickles you call it.
00:39It's really unusual for a song to have that kind of staying power.
00:44It's still being used today.
00:47It can be interpreted in many, many different ways but I think in general it's more like kind of naughty.
00:52It becomes a shorthand for 80s excessiveness.
00:56It's a statement about the consumerism of that time in its own way.
01:01Oh yeah is a protest song.
01:04Nobody expected this.
01:06It was a very strange album song.
01:09Something that we made 40 years ago is still resonating with people.
01:15That is a huge achievement.
01:17The success of this track was so iconic that it happens still today and keep the circus of Yellow still
01:25alive.
01:26Yellow is not just a band.
01:28Yellow is a way to live.
01:31Chica, Chica.
01:32Oh, oh, Chica, Chica.
