The Housemartins - Happy Hour

I haven't got a moment to dig up anything obscure today so here's one we all know and love, which still stands out as one of the most irresistibly catchy songs ever written. Unfortunately its subject matter hasn't lost any relevance over time either. Come to think of it, didn't one of the Housemartins' albums have something in the liner notes like "don't crash the bankers' party, burn the house down"? More relevant now than ever before, surely.

Utterly fabulous video too. I'd completely forgotten.
