This has the feel of an attempt at repeating Rock On.

[@curtisphilumalee1447]

Sure sounds like someone ( Producer - Record Company - David Essex - Sound Engineer - Wifey - Groupies - Mistress - Big market DJ’s ) was trying to use the same formula to create another hit.

[@ssotbme]

amazing - i find it hard to believe anyone could dislike this!! thankyou

[@NigelWelch-x3h]

Nigel in Canada 🇨🇦 this proves "attitude" alone isn't enough

[@Le-fishe-au-choculat]

Ah yes the artillery man is now a pop star

[@rosskstar]

♫ We'll start all over agaaaaaaaaainnnnn

[@bc70900]

The thubnail image for this video says "Come On Say It" instead of "Streetfight". Probably a copy and paste mistake.

[@landofgoshenstudios6402]

I bet David Lee Roth was inspired by him

[@Oklahoma-Dreaming]

Indeed. David said, and I do quote, “Who do I want to be? The opposite of Essex, of course.”

[@Oklahoma-Dreaming]

When David was asked, “What does ‘Essex’ mean?” he answered, “Well, ‘Essen’ is German ‘to eat.’ Essex is ‘to eat times 10.’” Indeed.

He was a hottie back then. 😊

[@deefay396]

He was EYE CANDY !

[@Oklahoma-Dreaming]

I would write that “Streetfight sucks.” But I’m a gentleman so I won’t.

[@tiportangeles2696]

Definitely a one hit wonder. This song certainly sucked!

[@randystowe147]

I agree. It's horrible.

[@Le-fishe-au-choculat]

Well if you count brave new world then a two hit wonder

[@deefay396]

@@randystowe147 Who cares that the song sucked. He was certainly EYECANDY. Ha!

[@Oklahoma-Dreaming]

That’s funny.

[@davidm7237]

Lamplight, Gonna make you a star and Hold me close were three more hits, so definitely not a one hit wonder.
