One-Hit Wonderful - “You’re The One That I Want” by Hylda Baker and Arthur Mullard

With it being a Friday, I thought I’d give you a dancefloor favourite in the shape of ‘You’re The One That I Want‘ from Grease. However, this ain’t the version you’ll be hearing out tonight. This version is by Hylda Baker and Arthur Mullard - two geriatrics who can’t hold a note for toffee. The tune appeared in the hit parade in the 70s and may well have fared better if it wasn’t for a disasterous Top of the Pops performance (which you can watch here) which saw fluffed lyrics and Arthur utterly confused as to what was happening. Sales plummeted spectacularly after the broadcast. [video:45rpmsingle]
