Remember seeing the band perform this on Top Of The Pops in autumn 1974, and still recall the lead singer's bulging eyes, even more striking than in this version, which seems to be from a few years later. Very energetic and powerful performance, no doubt about that.

i've become mildly obsessed with this song over the last 24 hours, and found these versions. First is a Top Of The Pops performance from 1974, not sure about the second, but clearly from the same period. Astonishing 'bulging eyes' phenomenon at 1:38 on the right-hand screen!

Love the Parov Stelar!

Also, a great quote from the YouTube comments: "After all, Ginger Rogers did everything that Fred Astaire did. She just did it backwards and in high heels."

I've been caught stealing;
Once when I was 5...
I enjoy stealing
It's just as simple as that
Well, it's just a simple fact
When I want something
I don't want to pay for it

I walk right through the door
Walk right through the door
Hey all right! If I get by, it's mine
Mine all mine!
