Uk Number One Single- Have I Heard It Before?

[factor-fiction]

So Ding Dong the Witch is Dead made it to number 2 in the charts yesterday ( http://www.officialcharts.com/singles-chart/) but was beaten to the number one spot by Duke Dumont.

I follow the charts closely and am usually aware of most of the stuff that's around and am not surprised by any of the number one singles, but this one strikes me as a bit different.

It seemed to me to get to number one with little air play, and it sounds very familiar- a bit like something from around 15 years ago. Does anyone know. Was it Inner City?

Oh God you mean you think someone wrote that complete load of c++p, twice ?

I think I wd prefer Ding Dong.

It sounds like a 90's montage to me, I couldn't narrow it down to a single artist.

I meant 25 years ago. Maybe it's this I was thinking of

you've got the love by candi staton - can't find the original - not the one with the source

Yes chuck- I don't know how it ended up in Law either but I have been having real problems with Answerbank over the last few days- my cursor seems to move to random places and when I'm typing my text will suddenly go into the middle of a previous sentence. I've had to spend a few minutes correcting this reply too.

I could have bluffed it perhaps chuck and said I was querying whether there was an issue over copyright / intellectual property rights.
