This song became an anthem in the long hot summer of 1970 staying at No 1 for what seemed like ever.
It provided the theme to the 1970 World Cup Finals in Mexico and fitted the rhythm of the Brazilian team slow, slow, quick, quick, slow. Arsenal went on to win the league and FA Cup double, only the second team to do so. Those were truly halcyon days.
Just listened to Zenyata Mendatta, The Police's third album. It's quite good, it features "Don't Stand So Close To Me" and "De Do Do, De Da Da", two classics.
