One of the honestly great novelty hits, ragga re-imagined by puppet aliens and an apt first post to this community I hope. Dates from the era of the annual "Summer of Ragga" which never quite 'hit' despite the best efforts of the Zagamuffin.

I was thinking what the 'MP3 policy' of Poptimists should be and here is what I came up with:

- post anything you like.
- if you got it originally off an MP3 blog but it's expired now, try and credit and link the blog in question.
- if it's still on an MP3 blog, link to that blog post instead.

Truly there is honour amongst thieves.

Obviously this is not just for MP3s, it is for all kinds of everything.

Hyping your own projects and achievements is encouraged too.

Time for a post about Hue and Cry (look away young people)

I have only just 'got' the "strike" "metaphor" running through "Labour of Love", wow that's awful, I bet they thought it was pretty subversive getting a song about STRIKING into the pop charts, those crazy socialists.

Also this man sings like a limp raw fish.

(Actually I secretly like it a bit. Never did a song need an extended 12" less tho.)

Share your Hue and Cry memories.
