Whenever I have "hummus" stuck in my head, I always want to sing out the "hummus" part (and I sometimes do so without even realizing it). So I'll just be sitting or standing wherever I am randomly yelling out "HUMMUS!", to the outsider's perspective. I've gotten some weird looks...

    I am probably wrong but...

    I think it is more middle eastern like a spread made from chick peas?? does someone else know for sure?

    I think you are thinking of Haggis (that is scottish) they sound the same but are very different.

    It's not a "song" really; but it's a hidden track on yield; comes a couple minutes after "All Those Yesterdays".

    It's kinda like some old Russian song. I'm not really sure "hummus" is what Ed is yelling; but thats what the board decided on.

    Back in the day, you used to be able to find Chick Peas on a Salad Bar. Nowadays, you hardly every see Chick Peas.

    You're absolutely correct, actually! Hummus is a wonderful spread made from chick peas that goes perfectly on a nice warm piece of pita bread. The best kind of hummus I've ever had is that Athenos black olive hummus.

    Okay, I'm really hungry. I think I'll make myself some. :)

    It def. is hummus, coz it says on the Yield disc, or at least it does on mine?

    Does anyone else think the yield secret song had a bit of a hidden reference, namely the secret song on Nevermind, that many bootlegs have what sounds like Kurt singing 'Hummus' clearly?
