Ogden's Nut Gone Flake track, Lazy Sunday Afternoon, Steve Marriot.
Boom bang a bang.
Lulu.
(Incidentally, the only Eurovision winner ever to be banned by the BBC)
perhaps, but this is the filthiest song by a Eurovision winner and the man

Parodied brilliantly by Private Eye as Serge Forward.
The Lulu song wasn't banned for that, though. It was in 1991, during
the Gulf War. Boom bang a bang was considered inappropriate as a song
title at that time. Sad but true.
