I'm Too Sexy...

[bobbinwales]

No not me but the old Right Said Fred song . (The I'm too sexy for my mask guys) Not a question really, just an excuse to share- I heard this new twist a few times on the radio and think its much better done this way.

I quite like that version but I was somewhat surprised to hear it played over a supermarket's PA system recently. I suspect that the presence of both the N-word and the F-word might have escaped whoever was responsible for selecting the tracks that day!

lol, not the store I work at I hope! We dont play music except head office approved stuff now - we had made mistakes previous, i remember playing Creep until the line "your so Effin' special' blared out

Many years ago, a teaching colleague of mine got asked at short notice to cover for an absent presenter on BBC Radio Sheffield. He assumed that the producer would have chosen the records in advance and only found out just as the programme was going on air that he had to choose them himself. So he bunged on a track that he knew to be OK for the show and hurriedly started working out what to play for the rest of it. In doing so, he let the album run into the next two tracks. It was only then that he noticed the sticker on the album cover, stating that (because of the foul language) it was totally prohibited to play tracks 2 and 3 on air ;-)

I played this, and realised, I am far too old for this to appeal to me on any level.

Did you like the original though andy? The only bit of that I liked was the instrumental bit - sample of either led zep or cozy powell.

not heard the new version but nothing a quick youtube can't solve

I loved the original.

I remember driving my daughter to school playing it on the car stereo, and her singing the "Hup..." part.
