Description | This B-side to the “Hail, Hail” single is an homage to Dennis Rodman, fan of the basketball-fanatic band and personal friend of theirs. The colors refer to the Chicago Bulls jersey and “The Worm”’s oft-bleached hair. Rodman contributes an “answering machine” phrase in the song, and appeared during a 2016 performance in Chicago, where he lifted Eddie on his shoulders. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YL1_PilDaQ |
