I swore to myself back in the day if I ever met that guy on the street I would beat him within an inch of his life for making that song with one of his cds. Words can’t accurately describe how much I detest that fucking song. To this very day I dream about running into him.
Does anyone remember you could buy CDs, that had a single fucking song on them? What a waste of material putting a single 4-5 minute song on a CD lol
It’s easily one of my most hated tracks. It sounds awful, sounds like it was recorded on a Nokia 3310, the voice over is awful too.
At weddings I don’t play it unless the Bride or groom ask for it, which isn’t that often anymore, thankfully.
Rumour has it McCabe did it for a mess about, and absolutely hates it.
there wasn’t a youth club or teenage disco that did not have the roof blown off by this song. I absolutely hate it now but 11 year old me cut some shapes to it.
Anyone remember his follow up single, released about a year later?? C’mon anyone???
Apparently It was a total flop abroad which should tell you all you need to know.
Look at the big serious head on him. Kind of a weird single artwork for a dance track.
I’ll give ya a quarter of an acre for that
Hate that thing. No thanks.
Holy shit, a legit 22 years ago.
Don’t blame him, those streaming services are all fucking leaches. Taking all the money while the artist gets next to nothing. It’s a joke. They should be paying the artist what they deserve from the massive profits they make
I love how its marketed like he’s Bros or something; the track sounds like ten dustbins filled with cats being kicked down a fire-escape.
I’d love to know more about this lad. What happened to him? I grew up loving this song. Haven’t heard it in ages now, gonna fire up YouTube and take a listen to see how it aged. I read a few years ago he actually hates this song. Times moving fairly fast though. Doesn’t seem like that long ago it released
Ah.. Memories of seeing lads get a shift of some lass at a lucozade party
He should’ve got 20 years jail for it.
Thank you. Now I have an earworm “greetings hold tight for the….that’s me and I’m up on the….now LIFE it has no MEANING…. Side to side like you just don’t care 😭😂 the best days 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪❤️
I fucking hate the whistle that does blow in that song
I hate this F**King song!
That’s all
It is the official unofficial irish national anthem for those that were in clubs, pubs, and school discos 20 years ago
I got to hold that Gold Record…true story. I was doing a music production course, and the songs credited producer (Tim Hannigan) came in to college to give a talk. He was very embarrased but ultimately proud at the songs success at the same time, and bought in his gold record to pass around the class.

School disco flashbacks.
It’s back on YouTube also
The cover version that is available on Spotify does make for a decent replacement at least (going by the response it gets when played at events where everyone’s hammered): [link](https://open.spotify.com/track/725FfoWsPYiE1hNeCTd32Y?si=iTscf0emSlOeypX8G8Dzlw)
Ahh Abbey Discs. What a spot.
Good god that’s shite
Why is it off Spotify?
Tune!
