If you like this song, check out bla bla bla by gigi d'agostino. he uses parts of the words of this song. sorta like a remix =]

Yes padulas, I think so too! Blimey, some people eh? Meanwhile, this tune does possess 'the funk'.

Thanx Elmer, you rock!

To put the record straight, Elmer worked for years In Drug treatment, becoming a director of a National charity. He is curently a hypnotherapist and still singing. The voice is as great as ever.

I've just been corrected on the Jeff Rich thing. He didn't play on this track. Oh Well.
Setanta2006 (July 6, 2008 at 1:17 am)
Great Track. I first heard it from a great covers band in Galway called 'Love Biscuit', who played the pub scene in Galway in the early 90's. Turns out the drummer on this is Jeff Rich, who played with Status Quo for about 15 years. (86 to 2002) Who Knew?
Setanta2006 (July 6, 2008 at 1:09 am)
Yeah! Would ahve had no idea of this song before the early 90's when I heard a great covers band called 'Love Biscuit' play it on the pub scene in Galway.
Turn out Jeff Rich who played drums on this track went on to play with Status Quo for about 15 years. Who knew ;-)
