The violin in the song really raised it to another level and made it stand out.

One of the MAJOR songs of my childhood, nice to know the background of it.

Money makes the world go round y'all. He DID make the song what it was and deserves his recompense

[@kaydenhank852]

@Valentino Camilo happy to help :D

[@WHALEBOY777]

That part where he formulates the violin riff was delightful.

[@Mark1526374859]

Bobby Valentino is great. See him playing with his band The Pistoleros. Pure magic!

[@1gerard47]

Absolutely brilliant ❤

[@monroeboy80]

I always loved this song on Bananarama's debut album. So innocent sounding the Banananas version. I heard the Bluebells version on radio one day and thought I know this song from somewhere. And come to find out it was covered by them.

[@VinylSamuraisMusic]

Not gonna lie. This sons was about a decade or so too late and yet it still worked. I hated it at first and then become addicted. It’s such a wonderfully great song

[@itsjemmabond]

Blimey, is that how Bobby Valentino talks?

[@sharonplumb4653]

Yes, definitely add something!!!

[@asakogumama]

bobby bluebell is the guitarist not the vocalist...i think, anyway i totally didn't remember it was bobby valentino who played that violine!! thank you for uploading

[@mrindecisive100]

You're right, Bobby Bluebell is the guitarist. Typical BBC, not doing proper research!

[@rouens]

Great interesting piece really to know

[@rmkw4291]

That violin bow camera TOTP put on back then at the end of the clip. The producers/directors were trying way too hard to be 90s edgy for a very folky sounding song.

[@itsjemmabond]

It worked though!

[@bigcountry7852]

Im sure the song writer had a bigger say than the producer,to add it,does give it a great melody,bobby played on big country's Elecetric album 👍

[@nodgelyobo1]

Think he ended up going to court and getting 100k for it.....deservedly so......Hated the song myself, but couldn't ignore it's likeability within the pop culture..

[@ElwoodBlues68]

Bobby Valentino is awesome! Check out his stuff with the Electric Bluebirds!

[@VinylSamuraisMusic]

I’ll do that. Nice one

[@sa4540]

I’d watch the one show just to stare at her 😍

[@millomweb]

I think this is completely wrong ! Nothing to do with the violin it was the fact it was an uptempo version ! The Bananarama version doesn't even sound like the same song !

[@mikeohlh]

So, one of the Bananarama girls was a girlfriend of one of these blokes back in the day, lol interesting

[@TheGodParticle]

Yeah the lead singer of the bluebells, he looked like Steve strange at the time. Then she shacked up with dave Stuart from the eurythmics for a very long time. Another lucky man.

[@isabelgoudie1497]

She wasn't Ken's girlfriend she was bobby's

[@colinfairley5118]

A travesty of justice!!!!

[@boymanic]

And is never mentioned that The Bluebells are a Scottish band,Independence Now !!!

[@boymanic]

@GGJ Martin Well that's enough about you
