They were the first UK band to reach the number one slot in the US with a debut single since The Beatles. They have performed for Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom, Nelson Mandela and at the Filmfare Awards and subsequently released a track for Comic Relief. As multi-platinum award winning artists and songwriters, their global sales total 30 million and over 100 million plays on Spotify. They have writing credits on Taylor Swift’s “Look What You Made Me Do” and Sofi Tukker’s “Batshit”, their music has been featured in over 50 films and TV shows (e.g. Angry Birds 2, The Odd Couple, The Simpsons, West Wing, Family Guy) and in excess of 100 commercials. The band has performed with Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger and David Bowie; plus had plaudits from Madonna, Jay-Z, and Prince.

I’m Too Sexy – The Song

‘I’m Too Sexy is the debut single by British group Right Said Fred. The single peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart. Outside the United Kingdom, “I’m Too Sexy” topped the charts in seven countries, including Australia, Canada, Ireland, and the United States. The idea for the song came about when the Fairbrass brothers were running a gym in London where, according to Richard, there was “lots of narcissism and posing”. One day, he took his shirt off and started singing “I’m too sexy for my shirt” in front of a mirror as a joke. The band originally recorded it as an indie rock song.In the clubs, many people imitated their “catwalk” dance as seen on the video clip. The song received new popularity when it was adopted as the walk-in music by professional arts player Andy Fordham, who was also nicknamed ‘The Viking’.

The Darts Player – The Shape

This record has been modelled into the silhouette of  male darts player about to throw a dart.

Andy Fordham (1962 –  2021), is an English former professional darts player. Known affectionately as “The Viking”, won the 2004 BDO World Darts Championsship and the 1999 Winmau World Masters. Instantly recognisable for his huge frame and was a member of the Professional Darts Corporation.

Darts or dart-throwing is a competitive sport in which two or more players bare-handedly throw small sharp-pointed missiles known as darts at a round target known as a dartboard. Points can be scored by hitting specific marked areas of the board, though unlike in sports such as archery, these areas are distributed all across the board and do not follow a principle of points increasing towards the centre of the board. Though a number of similar games using various boards and rules exist, the term “darts” usually now refers to a standardised game involving a specific board design and set of rules. While being a professional shooting sport, darts is also a traditional pub game. Darts is commonly played in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, and recreationally enjoyed across the world.
