I love the Moroder/Donna Summer track, it's in my lifetime top ten. Here's an interesting cover version which makes it sound kinda mod.

I keep thinking about the Wurzels and their brand new combine harvester!

Oh shit! I thought it was a cover of that song! I had a quick look on my phone in the living room, trying not to get told off for making extraneous noise. That's another song for me to check out properly later. I said, "wicked" because I thought what I thought.

Brand new key came out in '71 and the Wurzels Combine Harvester was a parody of it, a few years later.

Oh my word! I will go to bed and start again tomorrow! I didn't realise it was Brand New Key. Thank you and sorry and slap face emoji!

@hotmetal , saw them tonight in Glasgow . To be fair they were superb - nearly 20 years together as a band and family and I have no idea why they were joint headlining with another band who were very poor. They're best known in the UK for touring with Bowling For Soup but deserve a lot more respect for their own material and commitment to the music

My buddy was hot way back then for the extremely popular Melanie. That cut was on her album.

It was vey hard to sing along at the gig with the right words

I'm not usually a fan of Johnny Cash covers; I think his voice is quite unique and trying to cover it usually ruins the music for me. That being said, I really enjoy this


This guy has a few other songs which I really enjoy, although the lyrics can be a bit dark!

They should have done the worzels version, it would have brought the house down.
