Fush Yu Mang is the debut studio album by American rock band Smash Mouth, released on July 8, 1997 by Interscope Records.[1] It includes their first major hit, "Walkin' on the Sun", which was the last song to be added onto the album.[6] The title of the album was taken from a line ("fuck you, man!") slurred by Al Pacino in Scarface. (One song, "Padrino", contains the line "I'll take any flick with Al Pacino".) On the cover of the album is the band in guitarist Greg Camp's 1962 Ford Falcon Squire wagon[7] flying through space with an outstretched arm giving the finger. The title is written in a stylized, pseudo-Asian font. The album also features a cover of War's "Why Can't We Be Friends?". The initial release was given a Parental Advisory label, while later releases were not.

Fush Yu Mang (рус. Да пошёл ты) — дебютный студийный альбом американской альтернативной рок группы Smash Mouth, выпущенный 8 июля 1997 года на лейбле Interscope Records. Песня «Walkin' on the Sun», стала главным хитом группы на альбоме. Название альбома было взято из фразы «fuck you, man», которую нечленораздельно произнёс главный герой Тони Монтана из фильма Лицо со шрамом в исполнении Аль Пачино (в песне «Padrino» есть строчка «I’ll take any flick with Al Pacino» являющаяся отсылкой). На обложке альбома изображён летящий по космосу автомобиль Грега Кампа '62 Ford Falcon Squire[6], в которой сидят участники Smash Mouth, один из членов которой показывает из окна средний палец. Название альбома стилизовано под китайские иероглифы. Также на альбоме присутствует кавер-версия песни «Why Can’t We Be Friends?» американской фанк-группы War.
