My favourite 10cc song, and 12 years old me completely bought into the story when I heard it, even without having any idea how technically accomplished the band was. Rubber Bullets next, I think.

A wonderful song from a unique and talented band.

10CC,an extremely talented creative band full of clever bastards. Love 'em.

I'm Mandy Fly me" was what the air hostess said into the camera at the end of a well known television commercial for a particular airline in the UK. It is from a real commercial.

Definitely the best song from one of the best and talented bands to come out of the 70s . This is without doubt a drugs related song though .

Great reaction trey. Two other songs to consider woul be ,THE OLD WILD MEN. AND THE MARRIAGE BEAURO.

We need a 10cc resurgence they were masterful

Love this

Great song, thanks Tre much appreciated!

Lots of good ones in their catalogue.

Just recently got all their 1970's albums, having only previously had the late 1990's best of-one of the great forgotten bands.

10cc, yet another 70's 'supergroup' from the UK! How about some Sweet, or Slade, or Mud, or Darts, or Imagination, or Gibson Brothers, or Hot Chocolate, or The Real Thing, or even some O.M.D. or Ian Dury & the Blockheads (incredible bass player!), or Dr Feelgood, or The Lambrettas, or Secret Affair, or Souxsie & the Banshees, or Fun Boy Three, or The Selector, or The Specials, or Yazoo, or some incredible a cappella from The Flying Pickets!

Out of those options only Ian Drury appeals. Slade, Hot Chocolate no thanks.

creative geniuses musically and lyrically you never know where they are going to go. try THE OLD WILD MEN

Great song!

This one is about an ad for British airways (or some airline) and how he was convinced to take a flight because the girl advertising it was so pretty. Aeroplane crashes and air hostess saves his life but dies in the process. Think that’s the general gist anyway. Ah the 70’s, what can you say you don’t get shit like that these days

Ian Mcgrath thank you Ian, happy Christmas to you too 👍

A definite Twilight Zone vibe, inspired by a series of posters issued by National Airlines. Like the very best songs of this type, it leaves you wondering. Did the entire thing take place in the protagonist's head? Is the story a series of metaphors for a sexual encounter that went wrong? And why was she called Mandy, which in the 70s would have been a fairly clear reference to a British pharmaceutical product that acted as a downer? The sample from 'Clockwork Creep' that introduces the song includes the phrase 'what goes up must come down down down down down,' which can be interpreted any number of ways. I suspect that 10cc knew all this and were just messing with our heads. But as messing goes, it was pretty entertaining stuff.

@@agemoth The Beatles never recorded a song as derivative and excruciatingly awful as 'Donna', then sat back and laughed as it reached #2 in the UK charts. The joke was on us, of course, though few people realised it at the time. It was only when I heard 'Old Wild Men' that I began to think there was something different going on here, that I was experiencing what I'd later understand as an expression of the human condition. A few months later 'I'm Not In Love' was released, surely the most disturbing song ever to top the UK charts. Listen to the lush, comforting background track, the guy is still - psychologically - in his mother's womb. 'Be quiet! Big boys don't cry...' That isn't healthy. I was lucky enough to see them perform a free open-air gig at the Sunderland Airshow a few years ago. By then it was Graham Gouldman + session musicians that had backed the band in the 70s, but they had the audience spellbound.

Sadly very short-lived band, King Is Half Undressed was on MTV Europe all the time in 1991.

Yeah. I like this song, but not sure if you would get it. I always liked their production. They make some pretty humorous songs. Try 'I Wanna Rule The World' from the same album.

If you like this, you'd love their song "Feel The Benefit, Parts 1, 2 & 3".

Ian you are a pleasure on here because you always add great personal insights to the requests.

Yeah a singles band mainly liked them without ever thinking to much about wierd lyrics! Now I am older, still don't! Memories of these good days strong though tunes musically amazing

John Lennon-Happy Xmas (war is over)

'.. Minnie Mouse has got it all sown up.. She gets more fan mail than the Pope.. '

just to let you know, this song, is part 2 of a double song. the first part you herar at the start is the end of "Clockwork Creep" which is him on the plane when a bomb explodes, then this "im mandy, Fly me" is the second part, where the plane crashes into the water.

As good as a Paul McCartney song lol. And better than many of his too.
