I've never heard it, but I've got an idea of what the words are thanks to a D&D-based parody version I read in Dragon magazine once.

'Wastin' away again in Menzobarranzan...'

It's very very famous in America.

A kitch Boomer classic.

I've never heard it either, but it turns up in various excessively Americanised music quizzes on on Sporcle.

Yes, I read about that yesterday. Some of his song titles were a little on the... naff/bawdy side.

Whenever I hear that song it makes me feel really nostalgic. I'm sure I remember singing it as a young child.

Relax would have been number 1 when That's Livin' Alright reached number 3, which I also remember naively singing as a child, followed 99 Red Balloons which I remember singing to myself in the queue in our local Fine Fare supermarket. happy

Oh come on, I was convinced Yarwood drank himself to death circa 1982. How dare he live another 41 years.
