"That Song" is a song by Canadian-American rock band Big Wreck. It was released in April 1998 as the second single from their debut album, In Loving Memory Of.... While not achieving the same success in the U.S. as the band's debut single, "The Oaf", it charted well in Canada, reaching number 31 on Canada's singles chart.[1]

Reception

Billboard reviewed the song favorably, stating that the song has "spine-crawling beats, jittery guitars...and a boombastic chorus that is so deliciously over the top that you just have to hear it again and again."[2]
