"Cool for Cats" reached number 2 on the UK singles chart in 1979, making it one of the band's biggest hits.
I'd be grateful if you could give the video a 👍 and subscribe if you're new to the channel.
The song features a rare lead vocal performance from South London accented Squeeze lyricist Chris Difford, one of only three occasions he sang lead on a Squeeze single A-side.
The title phrase is a reference to the 1950s/60s UK TV series Cool for Cats, the first British series to regularly feature rock 'n' roll music acts.
In 1992, thirteen years after its initial release, the track "Cool for Cats" was used in a British TV commercial for milk. The song was then re-issued in the UK, where it charted at No. 62.
