“Sick” by Sneaker Pimps
From the album Bloodsport (2002)
“Sick” by Sneaker Pimps appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2002. It was first released in 2002 on the album Bloodsport. Its best result is #58 on the 91X Top 91 Songs of 2002. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #493 alternative song of 2002.
"Sick" led the way for Bloodsport, the third Sneaker Pimps album, which Tommy Boy released on January 22, 2002, and it's the band's own work top to bottom: Chris Corner sings it and wrote it with Liam Howe and Ian Pickering, and the group produced and mixed it themselves, with Jim Abbiss recording it and adding some production of his own.
As a single it scraped into the UK chart at number 100, and the album fared no better at home, missing the British chart altogether even as fans warmed to it. Critics were lukewarm, and more than one hung a goth tag on the record's trip-hop. It proved to be their last album for a long time: the band went quiet for two decades, until Squaring the Circle in 2021.
