"Cherry, Cherry" is a song written, composed and recorded by Neil Diamond. The song was arranged by Artie Butler and produced by Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich. It was issued as a 45 single in 1966 and became Diamond's first big hit, reaching #6 on both the Billboard Hot 100 chart, in October 1966, and the Cash Box chart. Worldwide sales were said to have reached over one million copies. Ellie Greenwich came up with the chorus and can be heard as the prominent background voice. Diamond has stated that the song was inspired by an early relationship with a significantly older woman.
In 1973 a live recording of "Cherry, Cherry" was issued as a 45 single from the Neil Diamond live album Hot August Night (1972). The live version hit #24 on the Cash Box chart and #31 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Rolling Stone would later label "Cherry, Cherry" as "one of the greatest three-chord songs of all time."
Right Said Fred is a British band based in London and formed by brothers Fred and Richard Fairbrass in 1989. Guitarist Rob Manzoli joined the duo in 1990. The group is named after the song which was a hit for Bernard Cribbins in 1962. With over 20 million records sold worldwide, the group has achieved multi-platinum status and has also won two Ivor Novello Awards– for "I'm Too Sexy" (1991) and "Deeply Dippy" (1992). In 1993, Right Said Fred was nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Group.
History
1991–92: I’m Too Sexy and Up
In July 1991, the group released its début single, "I'm Too Sexy", on the independent London-based record label Tug Records. The track is a distinctive dance song which takes a gentle swipe at the fashion industry and features an instrumental break based on "Third Stone from the Sun" by Jimi Hendrix.
It was a huge hit in the United Kingdom, spending six weeks at number two in the charts behind Bryan Adams' "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You", and three months in the Top 10. The song also went to number one in 32 countries including the United States where it topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song earned the band its first Ivor Novello award.
"Right Said Fred" is a novelty song written by Ted Dicks, and Myles Rudge, famously recorded as a single by Bernard Cribbins in 1962. It reached number 10 in the UK Singles Chart. It is about 3 men (the narrator, "Fred", and "Charlie") working as manual labourers who trying to move an unidentified object (although it is clarified that it has feet, a seat, handles and candleholders) in a building without success, eventually failing and giving up after having dismantled said object, part-demolished the building (including removing a door and wall) and taking numerous tea breaks.
Ted Dicks said that he was inspired to write the song by incidents that took place when he employed men to move a grand piano he had bought. Cribbins recorded it at the Abbey Road Studios, and sound effects were added by the producer George Martin, who would later become famous for his work with the Beatles.
