#TheBirdDance

"The Emeralds", from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, recorded a polka-inspired version of the song. The album "Bird Dance" went double-platinum in Canada, and gold in Australia. The song also contributed to the success of multiple gold albums for the Emeralds in 1983 and 1984. The song went on to further fame when it was used in two movies: John Paizs's cult classic Crime Wave, and Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius and it was also used in the Only Fools and Horses episode The Unlucky Winner Is.... A remix was also released by the Belgian band Brussels Sound Revolution in 1990.
