What was the 'dance' version of this I heard in the chicken shop yesterday? Also, is the Cliff Richard version any good?

Could be Kardinal Offishall's "Bang Bang," which samples the Nancy Sinatra track and is great. But it might have been someone else's version - there've been other dancehall/hip-hop versions in the last few years. Offishall's gives you the most bang for your bang.

jcartledge, the one you heard was by the Audio Bullys.

didn't the audio bullys do one of these? i've never heard it, but i think it's likely to be the most popular in chicken shops.

Audio Bullys indeed. KO is always good value too. What about Cliff?

God knows what the Cliff version is like - but I notice it's on an album (Tracks 'n' Grooves) with a cover of Abraham Martin And John as well. Cliff really reaching put for some different material there...

And don't forget Cher's version - that's pretty good too.

The Melvins version is highly dispensible.

Nancy, surely...
If you squint, the Cher one sounds like Laibach.
