I ran across this a couple of days ago. Now, this song is one of those that has been done so many times that it's familiar from somewhere, whether it's from a commercial or whether it's the music that plays when the Braves hit a home run.
The original by the Shadows is good. Solid. You can find it on Youtube as well.
The Danish Tommy Seebach-made disco version, on the other hand, has a quality that has been described as kitsch, but that's not quite it. I can't help watching it... it is maddeningly fun to watch, because of its sheer cheesiness. It's dance music, it's beyond silly, overwrought, and yet the spirit of the song is contagious.
I think Scott should play the piano like this man does the keyboard. One foot always jamming it out.
