Bianco2564 Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Was riding the scooter home tonight and clocked the odometer at 57705.The number 5705 immediately sprung to my mind that it was a cheesy 70s song, but couldn't remember the artist.Youtube'd it when I got home and found it was City Boy in 1978.Now I can't shift the tune out my head, fk you Honda speedo : Quote

Guest Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 There's a few vids of it out there showing different vocalists.......and in reality it was the drummer Roy Ward who actually sang it.He also did the vocals (as a session singer) on "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" which was a hit in 1982 for Tight Fit.
