Itsy Bitsy

This isn't the original version of this song, though the lyrics are more or less the same (this version having a few more "Oh yeah's" added in). This version was released by a band with a very silly name, which was led by former Children's TV Presenter Timmy Mallott, who had been a staple of Saturday morning entertainment for years. What I find fascinating about this song is that the man behind the band, is none other than Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, better known for his numerous musicals such as Phantom of the Opera, Cats and Starlight Express.

He had put the group together, after years of trying and failing to get a number 1 record in the UK with songs from his musicals. This song went straight to number one, and stayed there for three weeks. I imagine that at the time he was thrilled to have finally gotten that elusive top of the chart single, but since he has never repeated the feat, I imagine deep down it's gotta be annoying that he could top the charts with this nonsense song, when far better tunes such as Michael Ball's powerful rendition of Love Changes Everything couldn't do it!
