My dad is 57 years of age and loves this artist and song. (He's also VERY heterosexual)

Heard it from The Catherine Tate Show and then they played it on Sex and the City so I HAD to look it up.

[gaibego909]

MAKES ME WANNA BITCHY HAHA!!!



[ec123456789able]

i love this song, it just takes me to another world somehow. it is awesome.

[bradthompsonuk2011]

My theory:

No Kirsty,no song catalog for Tracey Ullman.

No Pop hits for Tracey, her TV show never would have existed.

No TV show, no crude early Simpsons vignettes between her live sketches.

So then no 20+ years of Homer and family.

No MEGABUCKS for Rupert Murdoch and no Fox empire.

And no Astra and Sky TV network.

And no newspaper scandal.

[LindaGriggsable]

It was excerpted in a melody in the movie, "Kinky Boots" too

[kattekaren]

I think of catherine Tate every time I hear this :P

[skunkroaster]

What a groove ! Jusy makes me wanna dance all around the room .

AWESOME. I heard she was killed Scuba Diving not Skiing

[DrSamba1]

@skunkroaster Correct, she was hit by a boat while scuba diving in Cozumel.

[skunkroaster]

[tepracreh]

what happened to Her? can anyone tell me please? :-\

[MsBassgoddess]

@tepracreh

She was water skiing with her family on a vacation. Her little boy was in the water, and a speed boat was headed right towards him...she pushed him out of the way, and saved his life. She was killed instantly...very tragic, she lives on though her music now :)

[tepracreh]

@MsBassgoddess oh my god no. how very very unfortunate this is. i am very sad to know this. this is so sad :-(  thank You so much for letting me know, thank You

[Trund27]

@MsBassgoddess Woah...that's so sad! What heroic lady.

The Somerset Collection!

[ec123456789able]

this song was on the first series of the catherine tate show.

[AnnieBreckie]

The chorus...

no le gusta caminar - she doesn't like to walk

no puede montar a caballo - she can't ride a horse

como se puede bailar - how can she dance

es un escandalo - it's scandalous!

[AnnieBreckie]

The chorus...

no le gusta caminar - she doesn't like to walk

no puede montar a caballo - she can't ride a horse

como se puede bailar  - how can she dance

es un escandalo - it's scandalous!

[triplettam]

@AnnieBreckie !

[triplettam]

@AnnieBreckie  Thanks darlin'. I always wondered about the chorus and I've loved this song for years.

[brethynda123]

RIP Kirsty. we miss you

[swemalx]

was killed 10 years ago today - so sad...

[JamesJimmaHarding]

What a sexy song! I love it

That instrumental part 2:20-2:30 keep reminding me of that scene where Nan and Jamie are in the pound shop

[spot12duncan]

The first time I heard this in Kinky Boots I loved it. No one sings this better than her.

[margutez]

the chorus is in spanish

[Asororuam]

for alicechi1: the language is spanish (castellano)

[TubeSecurity]

Kinky Boots is a good movie.

[Centaursdream]

@TubeSecurity

It was indeed an EXCELLENT movie and the guy that played the black scientist in "2012" (i forgot his name) played a VERY GOOD part!!!!!!!!!!

[Matthew67ify1]

CATHERINE TATE SHOW!

[alicechi1]

what language is the chorus in? It sounds really beautiful :)

[friendofdeath1]

@alicechi1 Pretty sure that's Spanish. :O

[whatthedeuce81]

I've always wondered who sang this song and now I know! Fantastic tune!

[bluekarma]

I play this all the time on my coffee truck and people ask "who is that"...man, too bad she died but her music endures!

[fruitloop4eva]

@rebelrockstar66 i hard in was spanish in the context of like tango cha cha kinda thing lol i have probably just added to the confusion havent i lol/?

[mrsohmygosh]

In these shoes!? I don't think so.

[rebelrockstar66]

i cant figure out what kind of music is the corous:

No le gusta caminar

No puede montar la caballo

¿Como se puede bailar?

Es un escandolo

any help plz??i only know its not plain latin music or plain tropical it has to be like a gender or something...

[ronnopotter]

@rebelrockstar66 i think it sounds like mambo or cha cha cha, but I am not sure. and the lyrics mean: She doesn't like walking, she can't ride a horse, How to dance, it's a scandal

[squeezzii]

Hey Charlie did ya find it? nat x

[alocohc]

Great voice. Compaire it to Camille O Sullivan and Kirsty beats her hands down

[LornaCole]

The Spanish part goes:

No le gusta caminar

No puede montar a caballo

¿Cómo se puede bailar?

¡Es un escándalo!

P.S.: Trust me, I'm Spanish XD

[alienanobis]

@LornaCole, thanks for the Spanish part, makes it easy to sing along and not just guess what they are saying. Although would be nice to have this translated, I recognise some words 'gusta' =like, caballo = horse, es un escandalo = that's a scandal? Not sure how it all comes together but love this song. Sad Kirsty is no longer with us.

[LornaCole]

@alienanobis I think it doesn't make sense at all, but it would go like this:

He/she does not like to walk

(and) can not ride a horse

How can anyone dance (to this)?

It is such a scandal!

[sunlover20007]

@LornaCole I think you may have encountered the british sense of humour.......trust me,I'm british!

[xbdanny]

@LornaCole What does it mean?

[ronnopotter]

@xbdanny wich part? 

[ronnopotter]

@xbdanny which part?

[norrisonthespot]

I love the lyrics to this song. Made me laugh.

[filigrie]

Self-centered autonomous and irrationaly ridiculous. Just the spirit of the Catherine Tate Show. Loving it.

[supermattie8]

Fantastic :o)

[NBdweller]

We have not forgotten you, Kirsty. We want justice.

[magonagi]

Catherine Tate. <3

[plonkerfest]

Sod sex and the city. It's the tune in this is football 2003!!!

[aeltaco]

Indeed what a loss,

[Bettyswagon]

such talent, what a loss!

[Josuelito109]

exactly, sex and the city, 4th season, 1st chapter ;)

[laarbe]

This song is so brilliantly wonderful. I loved it ever since I heard it in a wonderful movie called Kinky Boots with Chiwetel Ejiofor as Lola. I loved that movie. This song is so funny.

[youshutyourmouth]

sex and the city :)

[WhiteNBlackButterfly]

@youshutyourmouth Thats what I said when I first heard this!

[mancreject]

That's me off Mexicans. What a waste of a woman and talent. I hope you have a big pair of shoes on ya the next time you meet that Mexican fella, RIP!

[morisssey]

Mexican supermarket millionaire Guillermo González Nova killed her with high speed boat while she was diving

[Elin48]

Thank you for posting this comment. It gave me the chance to google the name and read then read information about Kirsty MacColl the singer (and song writer of this song?). I've liked this song since I first heard it in the film "Kinky Boots"

[WhiteNBlackButterfly]

@morisssey What does this have to do with the song?

[MickeyMudTurtle]

@morisssey That's right, and he got away with it. :-(

[69ESmarina]

@morisssey Nasty way to go!

[PresidentJoshua]

This reminds me of Sex and the City

[pheline1909]

[heartshapedbox343]

[Kat151]

I take it 'heartshapedbox343' didn't realise Kurt Cobain would be disgusted with such a show of misogyny?

[deppl0ver]

Really good song. Good lyrics.

Really tragic end to such a talented woman :(

xx

[adminelf]

She is so missed! What a woman -think lily allan & co could take some lessons in clever lady lyrics....

[Charmedx94x]

-x-

[sexonthebeach003]

[Mandy846]

[divadavina327]

Really tragic how she died, but speaking as a mother that's exactly what you would do. Bless her soul. xx

[jakerandall123]

She was the best. God is with her wherever she is.

[0oLittleBudgeo0]

one of the best songs... reminds me of me and my dad.... love ya xxxx

[fantadoodles]

Isn't this the theme tune to Black Books?

[songofsouls]

Not quite. I can see what you mean though. The same instruments are being used I think. =D

[howieant]

[LauraBeachnut]

Me too. On my way driving to Miami, FL.

I can't believe she's dead. she would have been big. (I think so anyway)

[bnewman227]

me three!...our local abc station has played it a few times recently...great song!

[derpoetischedichter]

[cherystem]

very sex and the city

[ronnoten]

you are a fucking moron, fuck off.

[BritishKelp]

Yo arse wipe, show some RESPECT for the dead.

[toddinjax]

She's not your boyfriend you idiot.

[bnewman227]

thatd make a change from you being the receiver wouldnt it?

[littlenige]

I think the public were robbed of this girl. Thank God this album was recorded before she passed - now everyone knows what a true talent she was. Amazing album. What might have been?

[Neberkneza]

Great song, God bless her, amazing voice... RIP

[madhat925]

so love the song. In these shoe....such a fab way of saying No. this has just gotta be my latest catch phrase!

[autolupus]

Sexiest girl ever! RIP

[jimjimmyjames59]

Her death was a huge loss to the music industry. The rest of the album is excellent as well!!

[sourball81]

Agreed. Well arranged, very funny album. RIP lady.

[derfnosredna]

I have only recently 'discovered' this wonderfully talented performer. I can understand why she was such an influence on my favorite Tracey Ullman. Kristy moves me so much with her music.

[annh1971]

What a very talented lady. May she rest in peace.

[Chechunor]

In this shoes?

:P

[xjay1234]

this used to be in that game TIF this is Football 2003 was a wicked game!

[elmsclose]

bonitajinxed, this is superb.

[BonitaJinxed]

i prefer bette midler

[ambzandcarlz]

i SAID IN THESE SHOES HEHEHE

[ntrenor]

She was killed in Mexico. For the full story, google "justiceforkirsty". Her mother is still running a campaign to take the chap responsible for the accident in front of the judge. Said chappie got away by blaming it on an employee.

[Citysinned]

God bless you Jean Maccoll. Keep up the fight.

[MissAzure]

i think this is it...

she was in portugal with her kids and they were swimming in the sea and then this speed boat [which shouldnt have been there] started coming toward her & her kids so she pushed them under but didnt have time to go under herself so she was hit by the boat and died.

such a shame she was lovely.

[MetalAaron]

the supermarket magnate's

making money in impunity

and my kids don't have a mum

on christmas day

[peartfan]

Kirsty was enjoying and researching CUBAN music when she was tragcally killed. I listened to her every week

[Charliefisher1987]

This was the theme tune to Series 1 of 'The Catherine Tate Show'.

[xxthingymajigxx]

I know.

[firestartertwistedfi]

didn't someone do this on jools holland recently?
