This is a normal post The Blockheads were a hell of a band
But don't think that can be Top Of The Pops, as there are no shuffling mongos at the front of the stage.

Edit - click through says it's a Dutch show called Top Pop. So, to go with the stereotype, they presumably just thought the song title was a normal evening in.

Oops, sorry, you're right. TopPop, not TOTP.

This is a normal post Always wondered how much this inspired that Frosties advert

Pretty obvious that the advert "It's Gonna Taste Great" borrowed directly from I'm Gonna Be Straight".
IDK whether they got permission, but I'd guess they did.
BTW, there's a meme/urban myth about the kid in the advert, claiming he killed himself. It's bollocks.

This is a normal post I saw the Blockheads live a couple of years ago
They were very good, even without Dury.
