Having missed a Tacky Music Monday as we were travelling home from Essex on Bank Holiday Monday, and since this continuing hot weather [albeit clouded-over this afternoon, after a sunny morning] lends itself to a little "light music interlude", let's combine the two things quite neatly, shall we - with this remarkable number?
Of course, you young whipper-snappers out there will have immediately recognised this version, which was a hit in the UK twenty years ago this week...
Either version - I love it!
I love that tune too!
ReplyDeleteThe weather has taken a nasty turn here, soaked through this morning.
Now I must download that tune....

Oh, dear - I hope the downpours stay way out West where they belong! We had a smattering this afternoon, but it's just patchy cloud now as the sun's going down. Jx
DeletePS Glad you liked it!
Someone was overdoing the bong in the Wallace Collection video, weren't they?!
ReplyDeleteI bought I Monster's album on the strength of their version (which I much prefer to the original), but 20 years ago? How did that happen? How?!?
Another gorgeous garden shot, Jon.
That video is like some choreographer's nightmare acid-trip writ large, really. Jaw-dropping!
DeleteWho even knew that such a one-hit wonder DJ combo even released an album - yet, not only that, they were the producers of Human League's 2011 Credo album to boot! Yes, twenty years has somehow flown by without us really noticing, hasn't it?

PS I cannot take credit for that pic - it was Houseboy Alex, obviously playing with the high-saturation filters on his phone, who took that one...
The only Wallace collection I have is that of "Wallace and Gromit." Love it, the details, the humor, it's perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised I like the second one more. I do tend to opt for the more faster tempos.
Glad you found it as funny as I did! Jx
DeleteLOVE THAT SONG. Thank you for sharing. And more of that lovely garden. Sweet. Hope you had a lovely. Kizzes, dear one.
ReplyDeleteThe pleasure is all mine, dearie! Sweet, indeed. Jx
DeleteI think Beth Chatto would have something to say about the mess the HS2 is creating!
ReplyDeleteShe was renowned as a gardener rather than a campaigner, although she did take an ecological approach to her craft... Jx
DeleteIt was a Fab week-end.
ReplyDeleteDaydream in Blue would have been great background music for our visit to Beth Chatto's Garden.
It's very much the sort of music for lounging among the shrubbery. Jx
