    Shalamar have always been a favourite of mine. "There It Is" maybe my no1 of theirs. This is good too.

    "when you love someone it's natural not demanding" - there are some great lyrics buried in the disco tunes. Sometimes you just have to divorce them from the music and write them down to realise it.

    And the less said about Simon's smuttiness the better!

    I love this song - and Shalamar. Who could forget Jeffrey Daniel dancing to this on TOTP. I've got There It Is on 12-inch - must post it one day.

    I once danced on the same dancefloor as Jeffrey Daniel (Camden Palace since you're asking). And if you're into innuendo-laden Shalamar classics, check out "In the Socket"

    Ooh! You tart!

    Darce, I'm with you on 'There It Is' - but sadly I only have it 'unextended' (7"). You shoosh Mondo.

    Mick, that's such a superb clip and one that, frankly, should have gone with the post. I am a bad blogger.

    Er, slightly embarrassing. I've just remebered in my drunken stupor it's 'Make That Move' I have on 12-inch, not 'There It Is'. (hic)

    'Take That To The Bank' is the real classic Shalamar 12" - don't think it's the slightest bit smutty though.

    Yes, I really like that one too - but again, only have it unextended.
