"Diamond Hoo Ha Man" is a song by British rock band Supergrass. The single was first played live at Guilfest 2007 in Guildford, England, and this live version was then released as a free download via the band's website (as was its B-side "345"). It is the first official single from the band's sixth album, ''Diamond Hoo Ha'', and was released on 14 January 2008 as a vinyl-only single, limited to 1,500 copies, thus limiting its chances of charting, which it failed to do.

But with the album, ''Diamond Hoo Ha'' also means a really good time. A "Diamond Hoo Ha Man" is someone who's a bit excessive."〔(Supergrass 'Diamond Hoo Ha' album – MusicRemedy )〕 The title of the song was in fact praised by Nick Cave, with Gaz Coombes saying; "It's a great image, not as good as one of David Bowie's weird characters, but it reminds me of one of those. We were batting it around, then Nick () said he'd spoken to Nick Cave and mentioned it as a possible title and he went, 'Yeah, man, I love it.' He has good album titles and if he likes it..."〔(Supergrass – Britpop's jauntiest survivors grow up – News, Music & Gigs – Belfasttelegraph.co.uk )〕 This song has recently been used as background music in advertisements for Gatorade and ESPN's World Series of Poker. ==Tracklisting== Limited edition chocolate 7" R6753 # "Diamond Hoo Ha Man" (3:26) # "345" (3:39) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Diamond Hoo Ha Man」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
