About: Steve Bent   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

It is presumably this feature that inspired listeners to Kenny Everett's show on Capital Radio in 1977 to vote it into his 'bottom 30' chart of the worst songs ever recorded at number 18 (the broadcast can be found, along with more chart details, here). The song was later released (on appropriately vomit-coloured vinyl) by K-Tel on The World's Worst Record Show in 1978. Bent's musical career continued with the Showbiz XI, a conglomeration that included Jess Conrad (another Everett bottom 30 favourite). He has since concentrated on his acting in a variety of genres.

Years later, the Fall included a version of it on The Infotainment Scan and Peel played the two back to back, remarking that Steve would probably be receiving some royalties from the song at last. The Fall's version made #22 in that year's Festive Fifty (one vote coming from a Lithuanian listener who believed it was called 'Going To Spend').
