...socially undesirable sophomores, juniors and seniors had lost their place of instant acceptance and belonging, but at least the Major heard the unrestrained roar of all first-years in conversation morning, noon and night. He could rejoice with the triumphant undergrad whose well-flung butter pat hit his relatively inexpensive ceiling. As the decades went by, and the voices of women and minority students began to contribute to the din, I like to think the old boy was grinning under that mustache...

The song explodes with a catchy bass line and is driven forward by Stefani's singing and horns blaring the sounds of Christmas. In under three minutes, No Doubt will have your Christmas party jumping. The manic performance of "Oi to the World" represents what the holiday season is all about...
