    I was 11 when this came out. They would play it at the disco our local community centre put on for kids on a Friday evening. My classmates and I would have so much fun stomping our feet to it. lol

    This was a novelty song by a seriously talented band . If you want to be impressed do a search on here for The Toy Dolls duelling banjos , you won't be disappointed . It's from one of their live videos .

    This was a great novelty record from Christmas 1984 which has given some humour to the charts behind Band Aid and Wham.
