Can anyone remember which Shaky song had the young art student Vic Reeves dancing in the video?

'what do you want to make those eyes at me for?', I think

EDIT I am correct.

I believe the Emile Ford original holds the record for the longest title that is a question to get to no 1 in the British single charts.
This is the stuff to impress girls with.

Long title.

It wasn't a number one but I just wanted to mention it.
(PS Google says the bassist was in Caravan - well ride me sideways.)

I don't like the song, or the band much
but the title is great

I wish I hadn't posted it now.
I can't stop singing it.

The singer produced Howard Jones' early stuff, if I remember correctly.

(Cave Duck, Tue 18 May 2010, 15:51, Reply)

God I hated Howard Jones....
especially for that miming twat who was in the videos. As if his songs were not vile enough he had to go tormenting the deaf too.

Aye,
my girlfriend of the time liked him and I took her to see him as a birthday surprise. It was around the time that "Like To Get To Know You Well" was released as a single and on the back of the tickets was printed "This ticket is sold on the express condition that the bearer gets to know well at least ten other members of the audience."
He may as well have put "Yes I am a cunt and you're right to hate me."

That's the gayest thing I have ever heard.

Are you saying, after all the scorn that you have poured onto peoples musical taste
that you are a closet Shakin Stevens fan?

You may as well spell a post like Gonz.

Nowt wrong with Shaky, lad.
Did you know his first major gig was supporting the Stones in '69?

No, you did not.

I bet you like the Stray Cats too.

(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 18 May 2010, 15:50, Reply)

Apart from Stray Cat Strut I don't mind them at all.
The chap was/is a great guitarist.

Anyone who Dave Edmunds is happy to work with is alright with me.

(Cave Duck, Tue 18 May 2010, 16:15, Reply)

Dave Edmunds is a fucking wizard.

Indeed, I also really like Billy Bremner who played in Rockpile with him,
and later with The Pretenders and Kirsty MacColl. Nowt showy just ace.
