Title: Fun music, funny lyrics
Product review: The sound of Kid Creole & The Coconuts is typified by 2 things - fun Carribean music with lots of beat and funky horns that will throw you back to the last laid back holiday you took, and humorous lyrics that are bound to make you giggle when the words of the songs suddenly strike you. Here's a little sample for those who've not heard Kid Creole's music - "Oh Annie, I'm not your Daddy; if I was in your blood, then you wouldn't be so ugly!"Eat your heart out, Michael! (reference to Billie Jean, of course).For those who are into rap, Kid Creole does that too! Check out Stool Pigeon for some mean rap! Stool Pigeon was voted one of the best single of the year 1982 by New Musical Express.Chart-wise, Kid Creole only managed 3 successful singles in the UK in 1982, namely "I'm A Wonderful Thing (Baby)", "Annie, I'm Not Your Daddy" and "Stool Pigeon". That was Kid Creole at its peak. Thankfully, all of them could be found on this CD.
