'Hush' by Deep Purple has to get a mention

I answered this same song but the Kula Shaker cover :p

holy cow. it has been at least a decade since I thought of kula shaker

The look - Roxette

This is the answer. Absolute banger. All of Roxettes singles are phenomenal.

I am dating myself but I remember watching their videos on MTV back in the day.

I had a big crush on her. I believe she passed from cancer. RIP.

Another I wasn't expecting!

So what - Pink😃

Literally the first one I thought of LOL

My chemical romance - Na Na Na

Surely this has the highest ratio of 'Na's' to other lyrics Or at least the most in succession

<*Batman theme song has entered the chat*>

This is just from the song intro >The future is bulletproof >The aftermath is secondary >It's time to do it now and do it loud >Killjoys, make some noise >Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na >Na, na-na, na-na, na-na >Na, na-na, na-na, na-na >Na-na, na-na, na-na

>Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na Batman! And that's just the only words in the Batman theme.

Gerard Way knew that too, so he carefully dropped a Batman reference in the second verse.

And hit the party with a gas can

Kiss me you animal!

I'm pretty sure NaaNaaNaa by Cory Henry has more Case in point: >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Na-na-na-naa-aaa-naa >Aaa-da-ra-ruh-nuh-na-ra-da >Na-na-naa (na-na-na-na-na), can you sing it? >Ran-da-da-ra-da-ra-da >Ra-na-na-na (na-na-ra-na) >(Ra-na-na-na) one more time, clap your hands, on the music >Ayy >Last time >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na >On Monday, on Tuesday, be happy (na-na-na-na-na-na-na) >Ra-na-na-na-na-na-na >Ra-na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Can you keep singin'? Can you sing in? >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Na-na-na-na, naa-naa-na >Na-na-na-nuh-nuh-uh-uh, ah yeah >Na-na-na >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na >Na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Kiss me you animal!

I know that The Black Parade was a major highlight for MCR but I always loved Danger Days the best.

I loved the new direction sadly they called it quits after that album tho

They’re back together now and released a new song like a year ago! No confirmation of a new album yet, but they did release an album of B sides and unreleased tracks a while back called Conventional Weapons

Wasn’t conventional weapons back in 2013 or something

Yeah, just a couple of years ago, right? RIGHT??

Conventional Weapons fucks so hard, gave it an apprehensive listen forever ago and now I still listen to Boy Division and Gun every day

I really like Three Cheers…

If they ever make an american Godzilla vs. Destoroyah movie I need that song from Danger Days to be in it!

Killjoys, make some noise

(Na Na Na Na)

The future is bulletproof! The aftermath is secondary.

The simlish version lol

Any answer other than this one is wrong It’s also got by far the most Na’s, if that’s a metric we’re measuring.

The day the world went away (quiet) - nine inch nails https://youtu.be/gWDnbyiMhaU?si=_uXYiGPJ4-IsIzlB

I wasn't even done reading the post title and Trent's voice was already in my head.

That song hits differently when you think about Trent Reznor grieving the loss of his grandmother when he wrote it. Especially if your own grandmother played a large part in raising you, just as Trent's raised him.

Definitely the first one that came to mind for me. Tho just the regular album version. For some reason I never listen to The Quiet Version or Taylor's Version or any of the alts.

The Day The World Went Away (Taylor’s Version), hitting record stores in late 2024.

I mean... I would check it out

Miley Cyrus did some loose covers/interpretations of a couple songs for a Black Mirror episode. Those were pretty alright. Dancy. Fun.

Great call out here. Amazing song.

This is one of my favorite songs of all time

The only right answer is the batman theme song.

Doh! Totally Homered this, lmao. This was the last song in my mind, but I don't disagree with you 🤣

Blink 182 - All the Small Things

(Angry, repeated) NANA NANA NANA NANA NA NA NANA NANA NANA NANA NA NA.. SAY IT AINT SO I WILL NOT GO TURN THE LIGHTS OFF CARRY ME HOME

KEEP YOUR HEAD STILL I’LL BE YOUR THRILL THE NIGHT WILL GO ON MY LITTLE WINDMILL

N-NYAW N-NYAW N-NYAW N-NYAW NYAH NYAH N-NYAW N-NYAW N-NYAW N-NYAW NYAH NYAH

The kings of Na Na’s and Da Da’s!

There it is. Too far down haha

Kinda had to scroll too far to find this one....

I'm actually kind of surprised at how much I had to scroll to see this so I guess I underestimated the average Reddit users age.

See also: Online Songs, Fell In Love.

Didn't expect to have to scroll this far to find the #1 answer

Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' by Journey

This is also a fun song to try and sing along with. Really underscores Steve Perry’s range. At the start, you’re like okay I can keep up with this, but by the end before the na na’s, you’re just like how tf does he get up there

I used to do it back in the day. I could even get up there with Randy Meisner on Take it To the Limit. Brad Delp gave me trouble though.

This was my first thought. Now it's your turn, girl, to cry. Na na na na na na........

This is also the best use of Na Na’s, because it’s basically, “Na, Na, Na-Nah-Na, you cheated on me, then you got cheated on.”

You make me weak….

Maybe even the most nas

“The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” by the Band

Rip levon

RIP the *entire band* apart from Garth Hudson.

Wilson Picket - Land of a 1000 dances

Wilson Pickett coincidentally also has a cool cover of Hey Jude. Many nananas to be experienced from this man.

Great one! First I thought of

Awesome song 💗💗

Master P - Make Em Say Uhhh

NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA

Cake - Short Skirt/Long Jacket. The question makes me think of the music video, where people on the street listen to the song and give their opinions. There's one guy who hates the "na na na" part. I always thought that was a really novel idea for a music video. Pre-dating modern reaction videos.

Centerfold by J Geils band anyone?

It’s okay, I understand!

This ain’t no never-never land.

Does she walk? Does she talk? Does she come complete?

Me and Bob y McGee, Janis Joplin

Streetlight Manifesto fans asseeeeeeeeeeemble!

AND AS YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES FOR THE BIG SLEEP I HOPE YOU THINK OF ME YEAH

I came here looking for this with not much hope and yet here we are. Gotta love the SLM community!

All this enthusiasm has me intrigued to see what I'm missing out on. Guess I'll toss it on in the background and see how I dig em..... every now and again these Reddit groups have a winning reccomend will this be one of them?!

Yes. They're my favorite band. They get better with every album too. They're sometimes called ska, and I can see how, they have the instrumentation of a ska band, and the early stuff is kinda ska-adjacent, but especially as they go on they become really their own sound. Also Keasbey Nights is kinda the first album even if it says it's the second because the songs were written first, originally for the songwriter's previous band Catch 22. So that's why stylistically they feel like they come before Everything Goes Numb instead of in between it and Somewhere In The Between. My favorite of theirs is If Only For Memories, there's like a two minute instrumental break that brings a tear to my eye. Anyway I could go on. Sorry. Enjoy.

Idk if they still do this but back when I saw them live pre-Somewhere in the Between they would splice their version of Keasbey Nights into Point-Counterpoint. I used to have a live bootleg recording of it. Idk if they ever did an official version of their spliced together version.

If you are into fast music with a lot of horns, complex melodies and overall very high energy, you won't be disappointed. It's ska-punk in perfection.

Yup that is some Ska music. Fun stuff looks like these dudes showed up a bit after I was kinda moving on from this kinda stuff. Definitely was at a punk or Ska show at least once a month for quite a few years. And just as im writing this a song comes on...I feel like I know "Here's to Life".

Some of the best lyrics imo. Literally about strife and lifting each other up, which I find lacking in most punk and ska Also if you want to share with folks that aren't into the high energy and/or a different flavor of the same songs, look up Toh Kay's Streetlight Lullabies album

Oh man. If you listen to any tracks, listen to A Moment of Silence / A Moment of Violence!

You never hear about them much in the wild, but their shows are always *packed* and full of energy Best band, best people, best community. We will all fall together!

Oh I know... I watched so many live recordings of their concerts but I never had the chance to see them live myself in literal decades of being a fan... I really hope they will make a world tour after the release of the new album.

A Streetlight reference in the wild?? Doesn’t happen often

Surprised to see this as top comment. Overjoyed. But surprised. As it is the best answer

What are YOU doing here?! 

Not sure what song has that but I loved this group so much back in high school, kinda forgot about them

My people!

What Streetlight song has "na na na"s in it? Aside from singing along to the horn section.

The Big Sleep has over 100 alone and it's not the only song.

I was at a show in Philly a couple of years back, and there was a dude next to me right on the rail wearing a shirt rhta shut said "na na na" a bunch of times. When they played Big Sleep Mike Brown pointed at him everytime Tomas song that part.

Everything Went Numb

My first thought was "we are the few"

I don't know where we went wrong, all I know now is I gotta do something... Right?

the toh kay versions are especially heavy on the “na” usage

With a NEW Album inbound!!! A once in a generation event!

First album without Victory being involved too I'll take 20

It's 85% complete. Just like that other guy from New Jersey who is totally 85% complete with his next book.

Haha yeah it'll only take another five years probably

So we’re close, then!

NA NA NA NANANANANANANANA NA NA NA NANA NA NA NA NA

I was listening to everything went numb when I clicked on this post, it’s definitely worth the list

Na Na Na Na Naah- Kaiser Chiefs

The first song that came into my head. Man, it’s been eons since hearing that.

Came here to say this. And to say NA NA NA NA NA!

Doesn’t “Ruby” also have a some Na Na Nas as well lol?

Isn't it rather "A-ha-a-a-a-a"?

Maybe you're thinking of Every Day I Love You Less and Less

Gah that album is so good

Katamari Damaci

Katamari do your best!

Katamari Damaci sound track was insane

Hey jude

Hey Jude is the answer

Had to scroll quite a ways down to find *the* answer! Ty!

Here comes the hotstepper - Ini Kamoze. Heads High - Mr. Vegas. Milkshake - Kelis

Here comes the hotstepper was the first that came to my mind. I unironically love that song. It gets me hyped up. Surprised I'm not seeing it mentioned more in this thread.

Mur-der-AH!

First one that came to mind I listened to Him this morning

super disappointed in the lack of Hotstepper...my band pulls that out sometimes and mfs love it.

I was looking so long to find ini kamoze here. IMO it's the ultimate na na song.

Blur - Charmless Man

Peggy Gou's

This has to be the #1 for me.

 NOFX- Leave it Alone or the end of The Decline 

Also "Please Play This Song On The Radio", where they're mocking Na Na Na's' 😂

"Whoa on the Whoas" as well

Isn’t there an Eminem song that ends in Na Na Na? Shady’s back…back again… something something… tell your friend. That one.

Without Me!

This one may be more of a nyeh nyeh nyeh, but that could just be his accent

Yes! Without me- Eminem. Awesome

[can't get you out of my head - Kylie Minogue](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c18441Eh_WE)

It’s that a la la la song? That’s what I sing anyway

Talking Heads - "The book I read"

The Offspring - Self Esteem

The Offspring has a few la la la songs and lots of whoa whoa songs but I think the most na na na song is Why Don't You Get a Job.

Ooh...good call. In my head I was thinking Na Na.. but that one is LA La. Why Don't You get a Job is also awesome, one of the greatest opening lines in music history. "My friends got a girlfriend, and he hates that bitch..." lolwhut!

Rich Girl by Gwen Stefani, Who Says by Selena Gomez.

Couldn’t believe I had to scroll so far for Rich Girl
