Not in the same class(funny that! :lol: ),but watching Goldie Hawn’s Wildcats,I always was curious about the Guy who played Central High’s Principle Ben Edwards,Nipsy Russell.

Turned out he was a pretty Classy Guy,who was a Pretty Witty Poet,acted with many of the best in Hollywood including Dean Martin,being on the scene until 85,2 years before this Earth lost a good man,with a Beautiful big Smile in 2005.

Still plenty of facts to mull over on this good man.

Ok, time for another ball breaker. Sorry to be so vague. This time it’s a song. No idea of title, lyrics or artist. All I know is this…

Early 2000s. Probs around 2003/2004.

Female artist. Blonde-ish hair.

Song starts with a rapid “la la la la la la la…” and has a stop / start lyrical tempo.

Weird aaaaaaas.

Played a lot on Mix 101 back in the day.

I haven’t heard the bastard song since it was flogged on radio at the time.

WHAT. IS. IT ???

Naturally Blonde or Dyed?

African/American,Anglo,Hispanic?

Just trying to narrow the field here,folks. :lol:

Have you guys got anything on Radio over East,Melbourne,Sydney,Adelaide,wherever,Newcastle,...like Perth 6IX’s Juke Box Saturday Night?

Those nights were really great,though I only caught a couple Live at my watering hole,before the Pub and 6IX went their seperate ways.

That was a shame,as it was just fun watching quite a few devotees dress up in their 50’s clobber and show us their moves and they were bloody good!It wasn’t just 50’s Music though,but these guys barely drew breath,going from one song to another,only stopping during the odd commercial break.

=D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

Miss those guys! :(

OK, this is going to be like playing "Guess Who?" - a process of elimination.

So....are you sure the lalalalala was at the start of the song? The very start? Was the lalalalalalala repeated often in a chorus?
Was it a solo artist, or perhaps a female lead singer or even an all girl band?
Remember anything else about their appearance or the MTV video for the song?

Early contenders -
All around the world - ATC
Spice up your life - Spice Girls
Kind and generous - Natalie Merchant
Be my lover - La Bouche
Wilder - Gnesa (probably not)

Remember anything else about their appearance or the MTV video for the song? It has a distinct stop / start rhythm. The female solo artist was making stop / start movements to go with the stop / start lyrical tempo. It’s just weird as shit.

It was all the Rage in 2002 and funnily enough,after this Smug Shit(Your’s Truly)was wondering around an Eagles Lair after the Elimination Final Win against that mob,that song seemed to resonate all night.

Didn’t really care for it that much,but an Extraordinary amount of Alcohol made the memory of that song a right blur.Think I enjoyed the replay of the Game in the Pub,for me to grin at as well.

Ah, well, see.....you threw us off the trail with the "blonde-ish hair" thing :D
I actually vaguely remember that song.

Gotta ask though....are you sure you remember it from radio?
Or maybe, just maybe, it was the video clip that stuck in your mind??? Hmmm?? :lol:
