The song you arre thinking of is by the UK band Supercharge…The 1977 song “You’ve Got To Get Up And Dance”. They had another top 40 song relesed on single the following year. “I Think I’m Gonna Fall In Love…JC.
Does anyone know who recorded a song called “Golden Miles”? Aussie band - Late 60’s early 70’s Thanks in advance.
