To answer Withnail's question, Right Said Fred are still doing what they always did, although I hesitate to say "best". They released a new single "You're My Mate" in early 2002, which received a little airplay in the UK before being laughed off the airwaves. I must say, it was one of the worst records I've ever heard, and the supposedly catchy whistling was absolutely slaughtered on Chris Moyles' Radio One show. shallot reports that the chorus was actually:
Cos you're my mate.
Nah nah,
I'll stand by you.
Repeat a lot
Tragically, that's all I can remember of this record, and so far, no one has noded the lyrics. What a relief...
