"Fast Food Song" is a song made famous by the British-based band the Fast Food Rockers, although it existed long before they recorded it, as a popular children's playground song. It was released in June 2003 as the lead single from their album ''It's Never Easy Being Cheesy''. The song was highly successful on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number two in the official charts. The song also achieved chart success worldwide and reached number twenty-four on the Irish Charts and number fifty-six on the Australian ARIA Charts. The song was co-written and produced by Mike Stock. The lyrics were mildly controversial for supposedly promoting the excessive consumption of fast food by children, which is why some UK-based radio stations will not play the song when it is requested. Another version, "De Pizzadans", recorded by Dynamite, had been a hit in Belgium.〔(Bubblegum Dancer: Fast Food Rockers )〕 The song has also been used in many advertising campaigns in the United Kingdom, for fast food restaurants, especially around the time of the release. Many people have seen the song as promotional towards the chains, and see it as more of an advert than a song. The band are widely considered to be one-hit wonders, though their two follow up singles "Smile Please" and "I Love Christmas" both achieved mild success in the UK Singles Chart reaching number 10 and 25 respectively. One version was written for Butlins, where the lyrics were changed. ==Content== The chorus was based on the Moroccan folk tune "A Ram Sam Sam". Its chorus mentions the fast food restaurants McDonald's, Pizza Hut, and Kentucky Fried Chicken. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fast Food Song」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
