The first single from Spitting Image, released in 1984, was a rework of the Crystals' Da Do Ron Ron. The Spitting Image version, Da Do Run Ron, was a spoof election campaign song for Ronald Reagan, featuring Nancy Reagan listing reasons why "you gotta re-elect him", with lyrics like "Yeah! He can really act, Yeah! He lowered income tax, Yeah! He hates the Warsaw Pact".
The cover of the single featured Reagan as a biker with Nancy riding pillion.

Actually it was their Lord Lucan (famously elusive British peer who vanished after being accused of murder) They'd often have him appear as barman/service staff in remote locations as part of the joke Although I can half-remember them using him as Freddie...so we're both right!

@jrcasselman 2 года назад

When they were saying how he could not remember why he invaded Grenada and was nearly dead-that was such an accurate description about what Reagan was like in his second term. I am sure Reagan's dementia was affecting his decision making during his time in office, particularly his second term.
