Fairground (song)
"Fairground" is a song by British soul and pop band Simply Red, released on 18 September 1995 as the first single from the band's fifth album, Life (1995). Co-written and co-produced by frontman Mick Hucknall, the song makes extensive use of a sample of the Goodmen's 1993 hit "Give It Up". Issued through EastWest Records, "Fairground" became Simply Red's first and only No. 1 single on the UK Singles Chart, staying at the top for four weeks in September and October 1995. It was also a chart hit in mainland Europe and Australia, but it failed to generate long-term success in North America. The accompanying music video for "Fairground" was directed by Michael Geoghegan and filmed in Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Lancashire.
