By popular demand, below is a list of all the bumper music used during our Gamecock Flashback series. Each of these songs appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 list during the Flashback year. Some songs mean something re: Gamecock football – “Faith”, “Scar Tissue”, “Save a Horse” – and some have no relevance whatsoever besides a connection to that year and maybe I was in a hurry – “Wannabe”, “Tik Tok”.

Enjoy!
