"Hey Boy (Get Your Ass Up)" is a song performed by Polish band Blog 27 from their 2005 debut album LOL. The track is a cover version of a 2004 Teddybears' song.[5] It was released as Blog 27's second single in November 2005[6] and became very popular in Poland, particularly with teenage audiences. The song was released internationally in spring 2006[7] and charted within the top 40 in other European countries. It could not chart in Blog 27's home country where there was no official singles sales chart at that time, but it did enter a number of radio and magazine charts based on the fans' votes.[8][9][10] At the end of 2006, "Hey Boy (Get Your Ass Up)" was singled out by Billboard senior editor Charles Eddy as one of the best songs of 2006 even though the single was not released on the US market.[11]
