brings back a few memories i can see lol this one was introduced to me by a very good workmate who sang it in the middle of the shopfloor and didnt give two fucks and just loved the music he was singing :D cant beat it XD
Just head this on 'only fools and horses' (although have heard if before quite a few times too) Decided to search for it. Took a while though, because i kept searching for songs by 'stevie wonder'! Sounds like him in the chorus. Nice song.
Oh I remember my brother and I as schoolkids sat doing our homework as the sun was going down and literally the moon s d stars were beginning to show and this coming on the radio. Takes me right back and the magic never fades. Love this song. .
Fat Larry used to live in Sicklerville NJ, back in 1977-79[ roughly] and as a kid we used to listen to him practice in his garage. I really miss times like that. RIP LARRY
@Rukia212002 It was from the 1982 christmas special, diamonds are for heather. Uncle Albert wasn't in the show then, it was still grandad. And the music played in the scenes with Del & Heather (and her son) going on dates and generally being all loved up......
@mrslondon450 Hi sorry my mistake, your right it was actually grandad who was in Diamonds are for Heather,and Uncle Albert was not in this episode,my mistake.Thank you for correcting me.I remember watching only fools and horses,and it had Zoom in the episode,its such a classic and I love this song,it will always remind me of only fools and horses,my favorite 80s comedy and I love this song, it makes me smile and its such a nostalgic song,I love this song till now.it's still a gem of a song.
@mrslondon450 Commordores did their own version of Zoom but I Will always love fat larrys bands version of this song,the lead singer has such a great voice,I love his voice.a pop group called Scooch covered Zoom back in (2000).it was not released as a single.its in their album of Four Sure,its a great effort and a great cover version.I don't know if anyone will agree with me.but i quite liked it. and also John Adedye performed this song in The X Factor.
Call yourself fat to lower expectations so everyone is pleasantly surprised when they see you. Great marketing. I use to rush home from football to record this because they always played it at 6 pm. Well, I got a ride so I didn't have any control to rush.
this song reminds me of when me and my mate was sitting out on his balcony 10 or 11 floors up ,watching the brixton riots in progress with fat larry's band playing in the background
reminds me of my first holiday abroad on my own with my mate gail
