Joboxers
JoBoxers, a predominantly British pop group, was formed in 1982, when former Subway Sect members - guitarist Rob Marche, keyboardist Dave Collard, bassist Chris Bostock and drummer Sean McLusky - teamed up with American singer, Dig Wayne (born Timothy Wayne Ball, 20 July 1962, New York).
The band's debut single, "Boxerbeat", found success in Britain, peaking at number 3 in the UK Singles Chart.

Subsequent singles, "Johnny Friendly" and "Jealous Love" did less well. JoBoxers' debut album, Like Gangbusters, reached the Top 20 of the UK Albums Chart.
The band released another single "Is This Really The First Time" and a second album Skin and Bone in 1985, but then split up, with McLusky joining Marche and Paul Wells in the indie-dance band called If? and Bostock joining Dave Stewart's post-Eurythmics group Dave Stewart & The Spiritual Cowboys.
"Just Got Lucky" was featured heavily in the films: The 40-Year-Old Virgin, starring Steve Carell and "Just My Luck" starring Lindsay Lohan.

Just Got Lucky
Joboxers Lyrics
You're the thing that makes me weak
My heart knows of the beat I seek
And I found it (just got lucky)
Oh yes I found it (just got lucky)
I never worry that your love is fake
I'm feeling easy and I'm feeling ???
Cause I found it (just got lucky)
Before I found it (just got lucky)
And I never felt this way before
Like a dog always begging for more
I've been fooled by love so many times
I gave up on love and silly rhymes
Got my feelings always on my heart
Locked doors, the key was cut, it was a fake
Now I'm such a very lucky girl
Gang way, ????
(gotta hear me say) Got the answer and it's plain to see
(gotta hear me say) I'm for you and you're for me
I feel a quiver that I never miss
The sky's the limit with a friend like this
And I found it (just got lucky)
Together we found it (just got lucky)
And I never felt this way before
Like a dog always begging for more
I've been fooled by love so many times
I gave up on love and silly rhymes
Got my feelings always on my heart
Locked doors, the key was cut, it was a fake
Now I'm such a very lucky girl
Gang way, ????
Gotta hear me say
Gotta hear me say
Gotta hear me say
Just got lucky
Just got lucky
Just got lucky

I went to work with my mum on this video - she was the animal handler for the wee dog. Iβve had to get the Woolwich ferry to get to the location it was filmed early 1983. The catering was on a double decker bus the band were very nice to work with. Iβve got photos of the go cart somewhere in my loft.
