Remember This?



Pretty Fly (for a White Guy) was The Offspring's breakthrough single, from their 1998 album Americana. It achieved significant pop and alternative radio play and popularity, peaking at number 53 on the US charts, number 1 on the UK charts, Australian charts and European charts. The Offspring's most successful song commercially.

Beginning with a sample of the German nonsense phrase "Gunter glieben glauchen globen" from Def Leppard's song "Rock of Ages," chanted as a replacement for the traditional "1, 2, 3, 4" to start the recording.
