Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Relax Sex Mix 12" Maxi . On January 11, 1984, BBC Radio 1 disc jockey Mike Read was playing the record on his show when he noticed the front cover design (by Yvonne Gilbert), depicting a man and woman pressed against each other, back to back, with clothed upper bodies but bared buttocks, and including a somewhat salacious quote from the song's lyrics. This prompted him to listen more intently to the words, and his reaction was such that he apparently removed the disc from the turntable live on air, branding it "disgusting" causing the record to be banned from the radio stations |

"Hey, HEY MATTHEW" is the single released by the British musician, Karel Fialka, in 1987. I The song has instrumentation with only a synthesizer and a drum machine being used. The song follows the lyrics of the father (Fialka) questioning his son, HEY MATTHEW, as to what he sees on TV (to which a young child's voice responds with such shows as Tom & Jerry and The A-Team) and what he wants to be when he grows up. The video follows the plot of the song, with the camera making it appear that you are looking in on the family through the television. This song was Fialka's biggest chart hit, peaking at #9 in the UK Singles Chart and spending eight weeks in the listings. |
