"Song 2" is a song and single by Blur. It was released from their eponymous fifth album, Blur on April 7, 1997. The song is named purely for the fact that it is the second song on the album, although it also happens to be two minutes and two seconds long. Because of the obscure title, which is not featured in the lyrics, it is widely believed to be called "Woohoo" or "Wayhoo" because of its chorus.

Released on purple 7" vinyl record and 2 CDs; "Song 2" reached #2 (fittingly) in the UK singles chart and was the band's biggest hit in the USA, reaching #6 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart and #25 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.

"Song 2" was featured in Intel's promotional commercials for its Pentium processors, and in UK trailers for the film Starship Troopers. It was also in computer game from EA Sports "FIFA: Road To World Cup 98".

Blur fans sometimes report that Song 2 is a satire on American pop rock music, a deliberate construction based on successful rock songs. The success of the song would testify to their triumph, as the song is not understood to be a satire of the majority of listeners. Some ironic critics suggest that this was a rumor started as a satire of "indie kids" who are too eager to criticize pop music and read too much into other music. Neither of these rumors has been confirmed.
