Chumbawamba are making a comeback almost a decade after their split.
The punk rock group - who were known for their anarcho-communist political leanings - split in 2012 after three decades in music.
And the Tubthumping (I Get Knocked Down) hitmakers have announced they are returning with a film on the way and a reissue of their 1997 hit, which remains their most successful song of their career.
The dance-rock number reached number two on the UK Singles Chart, and topped the charts in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, and made it into the top 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
There was a time where Cheryl Tweedy / Cole / Fernandez-Versini / just-going-by-Cheryl-now was the most famous woman in the country. And honestly, ever since she lost that title, everything in the world has gone downhill.
The final straw was when Madame Tussaud’s removed her waxwork as they deemed her no longer culturally relevant. As a lifelong soldier in Cheryl’s army, that move on their part really twisted the knife in deep.
I’ve just about swallowed the brutal pill that Cheryl is no longer a main pop girl. We might never get another single from our Geordie queen – and… that will be okay. Why? Because what we’ve got in the discography is BRITISH POP MUSIC OF THE HIGHEST ORDER, THAT’S WHY!

Dusty Springfield
OBE (16 April 1939 – 2 March 1999), better known as
Dusty Springfield, was an English pop singer and record producer whose career extended from the late 1950s to the 1990s. With her distinctive sensual mezzo-soprano sound, she was an important blue-eyed soul singer and at her peak was one of the most successful British female performers, with six top 20 singles on the US
Billboard Hot 100 and sixteen on the UK Singles Chart from 1963 to 1989. She is a member of the US Rock and Roll and UK Music Halls of Fame. International polls have named Springfield among the best female rock artists of all time. Her image, supported by a peroxide blonde bouffant hairstyle, evening gowns, and heavy make-up, as well as her flamboyant performances made her an icon of the Swinging Sixties.
