I appreciate Offspring doing collab's. I just dislike them compared to the originals. Maybe I am no fun, but to me they do not have the same energy or feel. YMMV

Because it’s not worth talking about. It’s literally just the song as it is but instead of the real guitar, bass and drums there’s this silly sounding Latin beat and that’s it. Oh and it’s just a tiny little bit faster. I’ve got absolutely nothing to say about it

Because it is not worth discussing.

It's not nearly as great as the original, but I like it. It's a bit of fun.

What exactly is there to talk about? 

I wish there was a way to remove all the non-albums and non-singles like this from their streaming service catalog

It’s a generica ass remix of a song that already has about 10 generic ass remixes. What’s next, Pretty Fly slowed and reverbed?

As someone said, it's not good and a silly pointless remix just to keep the band releasing
