Dive into the wild, improbable story of “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye” by Steam, a 1969 B-side that stumbled into #1 glory. Join us as we unravel how a throwaway studio jam, recorded in one night by a fake band, became a million-selling chart-topper and a timeless sports anthem. From the spontaneous “na na” chant to the drama of a sidelined singer and a label’s marketing ploy, we explore the serendipity, betrayal, and cultural magic that turned this fluke into a phenomenon. Each episode digs into the song’s creation, its 1960s context, and why fans still chant it in stadiums today. Tune in for a tale of music, chance, and the power of a catchy hook!
