Chaz Jankel's "Number One" from REAL GENIUS is a legitimate banger. I will not be taking rebuttals here. Yes, I unironically dig it, cheesy lyrics, dated synths, and all. LOL.

Caught the video a couple of times on MuchMusic, and registered the name; at some point I ran across the record on vinyl. (Apparently he has like eight albums I haven't heard.)

Chaz Jankel was a frequent collaborator with Ian Dury, but (at last on the two albums I've heard) his own work is fairly straightforward jazzy pop. I like this song, it's clever, catchy and fast-moving.

This song is way too good for only 100k streams.
