*yes I know, it’s only another way of saying ‘guilty pleasures’ but whatever – I’ve always loved this by Ms. Arena (sadly, not married to noted American soccer coach Bruce as far as I know :-))

great record
This has been one of my favourite songs for years!š
The Numa Numa song! Great pop song, definatly a guilty pleasure.
Just gave that a go and two of my children (11 & 14) overheard and sang along. Seems well known song, given they knew the words. Opens with what sounds like a Depeche Mode sample so that’s also a big tick.
Had Tina’s song at our wedding. It is the ultimate summer song.
I think this is what Radio One used to call a summertime sound….shame its January.
Stock/Aitken/Waterman probably bashed this off in about 20 minutes. It has their “Hi Nrg” beat setting, which you hear in many of their songs. And Hazell Dean, a solid performer with a good voice but lacking the X factor of a major star. And yet – I have always really liked it and still do.

If it’s unashamed hi nrg pop, then this Bobby O classic is as bang on the money as it gets. Always loved it in my early 80s clubbin’ days…
