Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey
Modern Romance Lyrics
Verse 1
Now When I Hear Those Trumpets And Congas Start To Play
My Heart It Starts A Dancing Down That Argentina Way
I See Carmen Miranda, She's Shuffling On Her Feet
She's Just Another Lover Of That Saucy Salsa Beat
Chorus
Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey, Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey,
Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey, To Help Me Through The Day
Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey, Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey,
Verse 2
We're Flying Down To Rio, Havana Bound Are We
We're Gonna Dance The Mumbo We're A Happy Family
My Best Girl's Dressed In Latin, From Head Down To Her Feet
She's Just Another Lover Of That Saucy Salsa Beat
Chorus
Trumpet Solo
Verse 3
So Why Not Be Like Moosey When The Band Begins To Play
The Conga's Getting Longer As We Dance The Night Away
So Hit Those Old Timbales And Shake That Tambourine
Become Another Lover Of That Saucy Salsa Scene
Chorus

Modern Romance first hit the UK charts in 1981. They came into being after The Buzzards (formerly punk band The Leyton Buzzards) split in 1980. Long time friends Geoffrey Deane and David Jaymes, who had formed The Leyton Buzzards in 1976, joined forces with John Du Prez, Robbie Jaymes, Paul Gendler and Andy Kyriacou to create an irresistible blend of funk and salsa. Deane left in 1982 to chase a solo career. He ended up as a writer and was the screenwriter for the hit film Kinky Boots.

New Year's Eve, 1981. Cleethorpes. A party. 200 people dancing a conga-line, screaming at the top of their lungs while the two DJs lead them in a 10 minute rendition of this song. What a night :D

Surprised no-one here has mentioned the story behind the song (it's not on Wikipedia either). A friend of the band made them a bet (£5?) that they couldn't get a song in the Top 10 with his name in the title. His nickname was Moosey and the song got to #10 in the charts.

God, I hope this is true.
