Weekend Wildcard - Jump Around by House of Pain

This Weekend's Wildcard is Jump Around by House of Pain. This insanely popular song has been used everywhere from movies to sporting events. It was released in 1992 on the group's debut self-titled album.

The song features numerous samples including the Harlem Shuffle by Bob & Earl and Popeye the Hitchhiker by Chubby Checker. But the most recognizable sample is the high pitched saxophone sample taken from Junior Walker & the All Stars' Shoot your Shot song from 1967.
