    I saw this group several times back in the day. I didn't like them - I loved them! In their concerts, they did a long medley of reggae songs, as well as their other numerous hits. Don't forget they were one of the very top bands in the UK in the 1970'S. Please check out The Dean and I , Rubber Bullets or many, many more - all fantastic!

    10cc are a great English rock band from the 70's. This group was super talented as every member was a multi-instrumentalist, singer, writer & producer. "I'm Not In Love" was their biggest hit in 1975 but they had other songs such as "The Things We Do For Love", "Rubber Bullets", "The Dean & I", "The Wall Street Shuffle", "Silly Love", "Life Is A Minestrone", "Art For Art's Sake", "I'm Mandy, Fly Me" etc.

      Yes, cricket is definitely a very huge cultural sport in England, but they don't mention loving cricket because they're English, they mention loving cricket because it is also big in Jamaica as well, and they are mentioning things they love about Jamaica, trying in ingratiate themselves towards the Jamaicans mugging them.

      I'm sure they do, but in the context of this particular song the character is saying those things to ingratiate himself with the locals in an attempt to not offend them or risk getting himself beaten up.

      West Indies dominated International cricket through the 70s & 80s (did not lose a Test series for 15 years)...and remained strong up to the mid 90s really...and produced some of the greatest players to ever have played the game. Gary Sobers, Viv Richards, Clive Lloyd, Michael Holding, Joel Garner, Courtney Walsh, Curtly Ambrose, Brian Lara, Malcom Marshall too name just a small few.

    They're from Manchester in England, but recorded this album in Jamaica - their very catchy song "From Rochdale to Ocho Rios" on the same album talks about their constant travelling between the UK and Jamaica. The band was originally a four-piece but split, with Kevin Godley and Lol Creme leaving to do their own experimental music and Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman re-forming in the band. This song is from after the split, "I'm not in love" was from before - hence the completely different sound. Both sounds are fun IMO.

    I saw 10cc perform five years ago in Hamilton New Zealand.. an absolute feast for the ears.. the quality of their voices and their musicianship was supreme. I loved it. The variety in their music is most unusual for a band. The band met us all in the foyer after the concert and signed our programmes. They were warm hearted genuine guys. Nice to talk with them and shake their hands after years of admiring them from afar. Wonderful evening was had by all. Thank you 10cc.

    Lots of good songs from this band, many already mentioned in the comments. I'd suggest: I'm Mandy Fly Me; Silly Love; Life is a Minestrone; The Things We Do For Love; and, Good Morning Judge would be good ones to try. One of their best hits was Art For Art's Sake - the album version is better than the edited single (6 mins instead of 4). Probably my personal favourite is Feel The Benefit, which is heard less often than many of their shorter songs.

Graham Gouldman commented: "Some of the experiences that are mentioned are true, and some of them are ... fairly true!"[3][4] Stewart recalled seeing a white guy "trying to be cool and he looked so naff" walking into a group of Afro-Caribbeans and being reprimanded, which became the lyric "Don't you walk through my words, you got to show some respect."[5] Another lyric came from a conversation Gouldman had with a Jamaican, who when asked if he liked cricket replied, "No, I love it!".

    1978 brilliant song. Joe Strummer did a good cover , God rest him. You should try rubber bullets by 10cc, but what do I know. Love and kind regards Martin.

    The basis of the song revolves around an encounter experienced by Justin Hayward, singer of the Moody Blues when he was on holiday with Eric Stewart of 10cc in the Caribbean. Hayward, momentarily on his own, was challenged by some threatening locals who took a fancy to his chain which was indeed a present from his mum. Other parts of the lyrics were inspired by sayings noted by co-writer Graham Gouldman. This song should actually be credited to 5CC as two original members Lol Creme and Kevin Godley had by this time left to pursue a more experimental type of music. The song still however retains that intelligent 10CC wit. It was their second number 1 in the UK - the other was of course 'I'm Not In Love'.
