Biographie de Spitting Image
Spitting Image was a satirical puppet show that ran on the United Kingdom's ITV television network from 1984 to 1996. The programme was produced by Spitting Image Productions for Central.
In 1986, the Spitting Image puppets had a number one hit in the UK charts with "Chicken song", parodying "Agadoo" by Black Lace – one of several parodies to have featured in the programme.
The other songs released by Spitting Image were "I've Never Met A Nice South African" (which was on the B-Side of "Chicken song" and was a savage indictment of the apartheid-ridden country), "Santa Claus Is On The Dole", "The Atheist Tabernacle Choir" and "We've Got Beards" (which poked fun at ZZ Top). "Chicken song" was by far the most successful of all of their music and not-so-subtle references were made to it in subsequent sketches in the show itself. An LP was produced, featuring some of their sketches over time along with a few of their songs.
Another song Spitting Image was famous for is the notorious "We're Scared Of Bob" in 1986.
Other musical parodies featured Michael Jackson, Kylie Minogue, Frankie Goes To Hollywood and Prince.
In only one instance, the parody was sung by the original artist. This was when Sting was persuaded to sing the Spitting Image version of Every Breath You Take.
