    This song was supposed to spoof arrogant, over-confident and egotistical people who thought they were hotter than everybody else in the room. It went over a LOT of people's heads back in the day, but I laughed every time I heard it. STILL incredibly catchy to this day and can still be heard in TV commercials today too.

      Seriously? People didn't get it? I was usually the last to get a joke so I'm in the habit of figuring everyone gets the joke if I do. And I was a teenager then so I was even slower. But it's obvious from the lyrics and the video that they were goofing around.

    One of the most ironic events in music history. A song that was a spoof and a parody of the fashion world, became iconic and played in every single catwalk, night club and party around the world. And Fred, who was making fun of the people who acted like they were too sexy, became a sex symbol himself.

    The reason for the song was that Richard Fairbrass (the singer) and the other band members used to work out at a gym next to a modelling agency, and would often laugh at the pretentious models who came in and just admired themselves in the mirror.

      @@stevecarter8810 That happens a lot. :-) Electric Light Orchestra's "Don't Bring Me Down" was basically thrown together by Jeff Lynne at the last minute, too; the album ("Discovery") was running a bit short on side 2, and he felt like it needed one more song to fill it out, so he just banged it out in the studio practically overnight, no orchestration, just synthesizer and guitars and a drum loop recycled from an unused take of a different song -- and it became a huge hit for them. "Black Water" by The Doobie Brothers is another one -- no one, not even Patrick Simmons (who wrote it), expected much from it when they recorded it; it was just a thing he felt like doing and they put it on the album because, hey, why not? It ended up as the "B"-side of the single which they (and the record company) thought would be the hit song from the album... and the "A" side hardly got any airplay after the first week or two, while any time a DJ at one of the free-form AOR stations played the B-side they got buried with calls from listeners requesting to hear "Black Water" again and again, and the record company had to rush-produce a new 45 single with "Black Water" as the A-side to meet the demand. :-)

    Right Said Fred was the title of a hit comedy song by Bernard Cribbins in the 1960s about 2 guys trying to move an unknown piece of furniture with lines like "We took off all the handles and the thing wot held the candles". The fact that the group took their name from that gave you an idea about how seriously this song was meant to be taken.
