...well, it was voted number 91 in the UK in a list of the worst pop records of all time. For those of you who don't remember/chose to forget/have managed to erase this 'song' from your mind with the help of various cousellors/hypontherapists, it went something like this...
No Golden Oldies
Rolling Stones,
We don't want them back,
I'd rather jack
than Fleetwood Mac!
It was a dreadful dreadful song sung by a couple of 'pram faces' (to quote Popbitch). ;)
Needless to say, the Reynolds Girls who 'sung' this song have disappeared but good old Fleetwood Mac are still around - as are the Rolling Stones (thank Heavens!).

"The idea for 'I'd Rather Jack' came about through a chance remark made by Matt Aitken, one third of hit-making trio Stock, Aitken and Waterman. The producers were talking about how useless Fleetwood Mac were when Matt spouted: "Hmmm...I'd rather jack." The rest, as they say, is history!"
What??????
Ah... such wisdom from the crew who gave us 'I should be so lucky.....':rolleyes:

There are just some things that are just flat out uncalled for.
That song, with those lyrics, being one of those many things.
