"Amnesia" is the second single from English rock band Chumbawamba's eighth studio album, Tubthumper (1997).

"Amnesia" lyrically explores the dishonesty of politicians and the ignorance of voters who continue to vote them into office.

"[1] At the end of the album version of the song, there is an interlude that samples a UK public service announcement on mad cow disease.

It may be a bit tricky duplicating the sales and radio heat of "Thubthumper", but Chumbawamba makes a respectable effort with this booming follow-up.

In fact, by the second go round, you'll be bobbin' your head to the track's feel-good disco-fortified beat and chanting along with the song's oddly catchy "Do you suffer from long-term memory loss?"

"[8] A reviewer from Music Week gave the single three out of five, adding, "The long-awaited follow-up to "Tubthumping" is marked by a flat verse which is made up for by a catchy radio-friendly singalong chorus.

[17] The song was released to modern rock radio stations, on which "Tubthumping" had received much play; however, "Amnesia" was unsuccessful on that format.
