Famous lyrics by »
"Swing the Mood" is a song by Jive Bunny and the Mastermixers from their debut album Jive Bunny: The Album. Produced by the father and son DJ team of Andy and John Pickles, "Swing the Mood" was a cut and paste record which fused a number of early rock and roll records with liberal use of Glenn Miller's "In the Mood." Copyright problems caused a re-recorded version to be released; despite this version being derided by critics it nevertheless became a massive hit in the United Kingdom spending 5 weeks at number one on the UK Singles Chart in July and August 1989, partly aided by the Jive Bunny animated character. The record became a worldwide phenomenon, reaching #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. It was the 2nd best-selling single of 1989 in the UK, outsold only by "Ride On Time" by Black Box (coincidentally also the single which knocked "Swing the Mood" off the number one spot in the UK Singles Chart).
