I have this one on 45 :D
It was (to the surprise of many) a minor hit in Canada, peaking at #93 in August of 1986. It never charted in the States
As well, the Spitting Image puppets were used in the classic video for 'Land of Confusion' by Genesis.

Came for the chicken song, left feeling satisfied.
(Yes, I love that song; I'll be humming it for weeks.)

These clips of Spitting Image are absolutely brilliant. I have forgotten how funny they are.
Incidentally, if anyone is masochistic enough to want 'The Chicken Song' by Spitting Image I have it on a CD somewhere. PM me your e-mail address and I should be able to send you a copy via attachment.

Poor girl obviously didn't know what the word 'caricature' meant.

If that's true, then that says much about the fragility of her mental state. She was a lovely, albeit very insecure, lady.
