How freakin' camp is this? Stock, Aitken and Waterman really stepped it up a notch with this one. A sister act The Reynolds Girls took it all the way up to #8 in 1989. The beat is like drilling something into your mind you hear it twice and you can hear it over and over in your mind for the rest of your life! And those lyrics, how audacious, how over the top, how naughty. What a scream. LISTEN TO I'D RATHER JACK HERE
Apparently it was a tongue in cheek against the critics who didn't consider S,A and W talented and completely ignored them at the Brit Awards year after year. They got a lot of criticism and many considered this record to be amazingly naff but come on they were only 18 and 16 years old.
All we wanna do is have a good timeThen you went and took our house awayNo-one ever asked for our opinionNo, no, we don't get a say
AM, FM, all that jazzWe'd rather sing along with YazzWhat happened to the radio?They never play the songs we know
Golden oldies, Rolling Stones, we don't want them backI'd rather jack than Fleetwood MacNo heavy metal, rock'n'roll, music from the pastI'd rather jack than Fleetwood Mac
I'd rather jack
Can't they see that every generationHas music for its own identity?But why the DJ on the radio stationIs always more than twice the age of me?
