hehe, fortunately not based on dirty dancing or the film flashdance. Gotta give matt collins the cred for this info..... 8)

Flashdance is a theme tune from an old bbc series. This is what david brent humms when he does the famous dance in the office. His quote: "i mixed flashdance with some mc hammer shit". Deep dish record the same riff with a guitar and a song is born
