KC & The Sunshine Band - "Give It Up"

8O

Id rather that than Boney M "By the rivers of Babylon", possibly one of the worst songs ever released.

Yeah, but Rasputin is one of the greatest songs in the world ever. Fact. :P

I beg to differ - I raise you Daddy Cool...... :D

Once upon a time I might have agreed with you young pupster, but for the first 6 months after Harry Kewell broke into the Leeds first team it was sung for him. And since his tasteless defection (in the house, natch) to Liverpool that song no longer has a place in my titian heart.
