Most Popular Ska Song?

jaheredudes · 03-02-2010, 02:40 PM

I think thats its The Impression that I Get- Mighty Mighty Bosstones, or Spiderwebs by No Doubt
any thoughts?

Ska songs are still popular?

Muzak · 03-15-2010, 04:11 PM

agreed with The Impression I Get

I might also add something like What I Got or Doin Time by Sublime. Also Smash Mouth's cover of Why Can't We Be Friends

Oh I thought this thread would be about actual Ska.

The best of all time is Don Drummond and I have faith that he is the most popular among Ska fans. Here's a great song..

Well if we are going early then I highly recommend the sweet Soul tinged sound of Blues Busters:

Well this could be considered Reggae but it's early enough to be considered a dying ember of Ska and what a voice:
