Chumbawamba 

British anarchist pop muscial group. Founded in 1984 in Leeds, England. The number of members has hovered around 8-9.

Although Chumbawamba is often brushed of as a one-hit-wonder of the 1990s, they remain a potent producer of catchy, melodic pop. Unknown to most is that their are deeply devoted political activists, feared by conservatives big and small. Self-described as 'progressive anarchists,' they have, since their founding, become the subject of countless police raids.

A very talented and underappreciated musical outfit. You may not see them on the Top 40 again or agree with their radical leftist views, but their musical talent and political fever still inspire an admirable eye.
Dudette #1: Hey, Chumbawamba's on the radio! Man, they never produced anything else did they.

Dudette #2: Actually, this is just their only hit. They have 13 albums, 7 of which were made after this.

Dudette #1: Oh.

Chumbawamba 

"How's my little Chumbawamba?" Or, "Chumba's cheeks bounce when he walks."

chumbawamba 

The expression you pronounce when you are getting your balls squashed or you sit on your balls.
You're all ready to take a shit and you forget to lift up the toilet seat. As you sit on your balls you exclaim, "Chumbawamba!!"

Chumbawumba Challenge 

The chumbawumba challenge is a drinking game that originated at Indiana University that is named for the band Chumbawumba and their most famous song 'Tubthumping.' During the chorus of the song the band sings "you take a whiskey drink, you take a vodka drink, you take a lager drink, you take a cider drink"

Those attempting the challenge are to take all four drinks while the song is playing and are to finish all four before the song ends. Sounds simple but in actuality is quite difficult.
Aaron: dude, we are totally doing the Chumbawumba Challenge this weekend!
Ben: Fuck yes!
