Squeeze - Cool For Cats

The second single from the album of the same name, Cool For Cats hit the charts in March 1979. Helped by the single being released in pink vinyl, the song complete with Cockney rhyming slang and the Cockney vocals of Chris Difford became the band's biggest hit at that point reaching number 2. The video with dancing, singing girls to the chorus was shown a lot on TV at the time as it was still a rare thing to have a video to a single in those days. When I bought the single it was one of the first few singles I managed to buy in coloured vinyl, it was also released in a rarer deep pink vinyl too!
