…a certain manchester megastore

Frank Sidebottom, who died a couple of days ago, also ran The Freshies. This was their biggest success:

The band's biggest-selling 45 was I'm in Love With the Girl On the Manchester Virgin Megastore Checkout Desk – retitled I'm in Love With the Girl On a Certain Manchester Megastore Checkout Desk, after complaints from the Virgin boss Richard Branson – which reached No 54 in February 1981. It was a typically playful offering, entirely in keeping with Sievey's wilful sense of the absurd. Other songs included I Can't Get Bouncing Babies By the Teardrop Explodes and If You Really Love Me, Buy Me a Shirt.
