Hi i do not really agree with one comment (keep songs from being cheesey) some of the most played songs are incredibly cheesey! i just came back from my holiday's in Turkey and they played what can only be called party dances everynight! these songs where so catchy and i still find myself humming them now ( i even remember the lyrics, sign of a great song) anyway i bought a cd with the songs on it here is a list: the purple people eater,the old camp fire,the mimic man,the mexican wave,the court of king caractacus,the best dance of all time,the caribbean way, oodoo the voodoo man etc.
I have information on the artiste it turns out they are all sung by Rik Gaynor i have found three web sites where you can hear these songs free of charge: www.myspace.com/rikgaynormusicandlyrics www.rikgaynorproductions.co.uk www.myspace.com/rikandnikofficialfanclub there is a version on one of these sites of the Benny Hill theme tune but with lyrics (very interesting) hope all this helps with your writing, and don't be afraid of cheese lol.
