Where Have I Heard That Song Before? - The Flirtations’ “Nothing But A Heartache”
Video, Where Have I Heard That Song Before?
What’s all this ’bout nuthin’ but heartache? Man, he must be tryin’ to bring us down on a Thursday afternoon. Not so. The Flirtations’ “Nothing But A Heartache” is one of the most uplifting cuts of Motown-esque misery that you’ll ever hear. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, you soon will. If you click here, you can watch a video of the girls in action, mucking about in some cruddy ol’ ruins, clicking fingers, swaying about and making one hell of a joyous racket.
So now you’ve listened to it you’re saying, “Hell! I know that from somewhere… but where?” Well, this dynamite Northern Soul classic was used to sell us chicken. That’s right, while you were wiping KFC grease from your mouth, The Flirtations were saying “thankyouverymuch, we’ll take some more royalties from your commercials”… and why not? The revolution is televised and brought to you in association with chicken wings… just like Colonel Sanders used to make.
