@DoctorScrumpy Thanks for that. I'm going to seek that version out too!

What that style of dance called that the geeky white guy does??

@lcalegan I think you'll find Beryl Marsden did a version in 1963. She was no relation to Gerry Marsden of the Pacemakers fame.

Tracey Ullman said that the head of Stiff records, her label, believed that 'songs sounded slower on the radio' so he made his producers speed them all up.

This song was originally recorded by Irma Thomas, a woefully underappreciated soul singer from New Orleans, in 1964. If you like Tracey's version (and I do, a lot), you should definitely check out the original.
