Alt: 'Monkey!'
I spent far too much money on the soundtrack LP and have 39 episodes on video. I won the first 6 and a Monkey! t-shirt in an online competition (the question was about Tripitaka).

I've read the original Chinese book in translation and would consider commissioning a replica MOnkey costume were I forced to a attend a 'fancy dress party'.

Born from an egg on the montain top,
the funkiest monkey that ever bopped,

It was my last record last time I played out in Shoreditch.
They loved it, the fucking spastics. There was a singalong. I regretted my choice immediately.

Did you turn down the music at the chorus?

I turned it off.
Then punched each of them, one by one, right in the fucking nose.

Monkey was fucking boss
what was the question?
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 27 Oct 2010, 15:53, Reply)

The answer was 'he was played by a girl'.
I fancied her like mad as a boy - it made me wonder if I might be a bender, until with relief I found out it was a woman.

EDIT not a hard q, though, you're right.
