This week marks the 15th anniversary of the release of Bloodhound Gang's seminal (?) album, Hooray for Boobies. Of course, the most famous song from that album is "The Bad Touch," which managed to make it up to #52 on the Billboard Hot 100 despite its blatant sexual subject matter. It also hit #1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs and Hot Dance Music charts (not sure why there are two different dance music charts) and UK Dance chart, #6 on the Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart (it has to be one of the few songs that was top 10 on both the dance charts and modern rock charts), and #1 on the pop charts in seven European countries. The video is everything you'd expect from a song with the lyric "You and me, baby, ain't nothing but mammals / So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel."
