Yuppie Love....only fools and horses..1989

[The Cat]

As the title says....yuppie love.... the one where Del boy has his classic fall through the bar. However my question reguards the first song thats playing in the disco scene..with Rodney, Jevon, and Mickey..it starts something like...Drifting free in outer space...been bugging the **** out of me for 20years.....thanks in advance.

I know the song you mean. Its been bugging me too. I have no idea what its called or who sings it, sorry. I have an original unedited version of the episode which I have been trying for ages to upload to you tube, but I can't find a free program to split it with.

Please nobody keep saying its Love Goes Up And Down by Errol Brown because that is not the song we are talking about. Love Goes Up And Down is kept in both versions, the unknown song is not.

Sounds like it was recorded for the show .. The bassline is very similar to Progen (move any mountain) by The Shamen

Some of the music in the earlier episodes were cover versions, like at the disco in Go West Young Man, so maybe it's a stock track?

Get Down With The Genie by Kool & The Gang
