Ball Room Blitz

[bobbinwales]

Ball Room Blitz by The Sweet has been one of my favorite songs since I bought a copy when I were still in short trouser's around 50 years ago. I played it to death over the years. Then last week at a family do I heard a cover version by Sophie Ellis Baxter of all people which sounded okay (not as good as The Sweets version of course).... but for the first time ever it struck me that part of the song sound's just like The Time Warp from the Rocky Horror Show. Can anyone else see what I mean?

[Patsy33]

Yes, I know what you mean. Quite dramatical..

//Sophie Ellis Baxter//

Bextor ?

Excuse my pedantry (not watched Rocky Horror all the way through)

[Hopkirk]

I much prefer Teenage Rampage, and Fox On The Run.

[douglas9401]

Never in all human history has anyone been so wrong about anything.

[Hopkirk]

Call them up on Spotify Douggie. You might surprise yourself and enjoy listening.

[davebro]

eh?

[douglas9401]

Neither of those things would happen, Hopkirk

[Hopkirk]

Go and put your Sinatra LP on.

[davebro]

Songs for Swinging Lovers - great LP!

[douglas9401]

What an odd space you occupy, to be Frank.

[JimF]

"great LP"

It certainly is, as is the one which preceded it, "In the Wee Small Hours"

[Hopkirk]

I have very eclectic music tastes, though Frank Sinatra is never in any danger of getting on my playlist.

[douglas9401]

Sweet.

[Hopkirk]

We're going round in circles here. Yes, they are on my playlist - but not Ballroom Blitz.

[douglas9401]

What about The Eclectic Light Orchestra?

[Toorak]

If this is a contest to find the worst bands to have UK no 1 hits I’ll chuck in ‘Middle of the Road’

[douglas9401]

Fiddlers Dram

[royfromaus]

Cheep shot, Toorak.
