Well, it`s a great song in reality really, I know I often tease about it on here, but I have to admit, we at our age then, replaced "Blanca" with a word that rhymed with it, and a line, that I won`t write, which led up to it.
We often talk about innuendo in songs (Biggy Bigg for example), I feel it`s much better to use words that sound "like" innuendo, and then leave it to the populace to invent their own.
Less is more, most of the buyers are not writers.
Lets` put this in dismal football song format, as I watch one of the most boring England football matches I have ever watched...
"Don`t look back at Wenger....".(Chelsea fans at Arsenal games)
Do we all not think, the greatest hits have a chorus that can be changed to a parody?
"Danny Boy" could well have been called "Jenny Girl" originally for all we know.
Anyway singa-long all...
"Theyr`e just +++++++ ++++++, we are birds in the sky".

Admitted it even then Mart!
But the line "no-one can take my freedom away" means more to me now.
Don't you just love the session girls and the orchestra with Johnny Pearson conducting?
I was on almost every other week in those heady days 32 years ago.
And we regularly had 18 million viewers. No wonder we sold buckets of singles.

Yes he has Anthony, he admits to hating that song these days!

Great to see that. Reminds me of when I was young.
