Ah, 1983! I was 15, but a year younger than most of my school class. The hairstyles and fashion are therefore this is spot-on my generation. Love the song, very catchy and engaging. You're tugged in two directions by it - at face value, you're glad for the singer because she got one over on Deborah, who'd been 'a cow' to her and stolen her boyfriend. From a more mature PoV, and especially with the video showing 'Deborah' held up for mockery, out in the cold and unable to speak, you wonder if you are only hearing one side. The boy looks happy, though. What happened to Danny?
You're a very clever man Mr Fellows, and an extremely underrated musician. Do you ever regret going down the comedy road? the serious singer/songwriter side of you could well have taken off and you could have been our very own James Taylor (without the nasals of course) still, Jake Thackery managed to get away with it for years.
About the time this great little song was released John must have still been guarding a sweet factory in the Rotherham area.

absolutely wonderful. (and that's from someone called Gordon!)
This is an absolute banger. Catchy as you like and a great video from a simpler time.
That wouldn't happen to be a very young Peter Serafinowicz @ 1:42 would it?!
Girls , so cruel. ;o(
