218. Hey Boy Hey Girl by The Chemical Brothers 1999

The Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy Hey Girl
Fancy waking up on Sunday morning with this song on my mind. Maybe cos it's I slept in for once. Something I hardly ever do. The cat woke me up at 6;30am by walking on my head. So I let it out the bathroom window and went back to bed. Didn't think I'd fall back to sleep but next time I looked at the clock it was 9am. Maybe the lateness of the morning took me back to lizard lounge days and waking up late on Sundays. I used to in 99.
This song was a huge hit at the Lizard. As was many of their songs. As the decade came to a close Lizard was playing quite a few dance hits with bands like Prodigy and Chemical brothers looming large. Of course we still played indie rock and alternative stuff but those beats just kept on coming. After the millenium dance music took over a bit too much and weighed the ship down leading to our sinking a few years hence.
And looking at the film clip for this it's I've been there..the Museum of natural History in london...cool!
Hey girls, B-boys, superstar DJs, here we go!
