A classic
This song always filled the dance floors
Super ahead of his time with that rock mullet
A song about masterbation.
Such a racist song now
Did the drummer drop his sticks and get up to get them?
Not live. Jesus.
Super Hans?
Wasn’t this group managed by Bruce Foxton?
They released two *amazing* britpop albums. It’s criminal that they are only known as a one-hit wonder.
This is one of their worst songs, I hate that it’s the single and the only one people know.
Look up the albums New Clear Days and Magnets. They are absolutely worth your time if you like this song.
And the guy introducing them is Steve Wright. I am so, so old.
Top of the Pops wasn’t live because the studio set up was super poor acoustically. Some bands played with this, see Oasis doing Roll With It with Liam and Noel swapping roles.
I will never hear this and not think about Beverly Hills Ninja.
Saw these guys at Magic Mountain around this time. Great show!
…*SO* reminiscent of ‘Shake It Up’ by THE CARS!!
Up there with the Divinyls in the Hit Songs About Wanking club.
First single, ‘45’, that I ever bought ….. and still have it
I’d like a doctor
To take a picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
Such a great line.
Drummer says **WOOPS!**
