E.Y.C. 'The Way You Work It'

Chart Peak: 14

YouTube

E.Y.C. stands for Express Yourself Clearly - they are Damon Butler, Dave Loeffler and Trey Parker... 'The Way You Work It' is theyr 2nd British hit and has followed 'Feelin Alright' into the Top 30.

Unfortunately, that TotP clip cuts out Simon Mayo introducing them as Ealing Young Conservatives; which is especially disappointing as that's by far the most interesting thing about this utterly forgotten boyband hit. Apparently they scored as many as six UK hits but even though I remembered seeing posters for them I don't I could have named one of the songs had I not been doing things like this.

'The Way You Work It' is high on heavy breathing and insincerity, low on actual tunes and in the two minutes or so since the track finished, I've almost entirely forgotten it. It's not even as ridiculous as K7.

  1. At least one of them went to create the funniest animated show of the 21st century....
