Let's Go Round Again is by…

[ClumpingBambooIsALie]

Average White Band in 1980, with a 1997 cover by Louise.

So why am I convinced that I remember it as a Take That song?

Has this happened to anyone else (either with this song, or with something else)?

No idea but I thought exactly the same!

I’m pretty sure TT did a version too

We're not the only ones juggy — when I typed Let's Go Round Again into Google, one of the suggestions that came up was Let's Go Round Again Take That.

Any Take That megafans able to shed some light? A similar Take That track that I'm confusing it with, maybe?

If they did, I can't find evidence online…

Relight my Fire is very similar

I think they might have done something similar. The chorus of Once You’ve Tasted Love is quite similar sounding - that’s the first one I thought of - but there might be another one.

Yes, that’s the one!!

Mmm, that could be it, I suppose. Similar instrumentation and structure. Still, I was so sure! It's just one of those bits of background knowledge floating around in my head — The Four Seasons is Vivaldi, Sunflowers is Van Gogh, and LGRA is TT 😂

No, Take That never covered it. Well not when I was a 90s mega-fan.

I immediately thought Take That

You're thinking of Yell! Two teenage lads who also did 'Instant Replay'.

Why? Why do we think this 🤣 Is this a British Mandela effect…?

Yes @LetHimHaveIt has it - Yell! They also did a cover of Instant Replay.

Maybe — how well did it do? I doubt I'd be thinking of anything that didn't get a lot of airplay, as I didn't deliberately listen to pop as a kid/teenager.

Top Ten.

Oh fair enough. So it maybe got played quite a bit on the radio, and my memory somehow just smooshed it into the most well-known similar-sounding pop band.

This isn't quite the same thing.

I'm not a football fan.

When people talk about "Sweet Caroline" I get a status quo earworm.
I know it's not THAT Sweet Caroline. I ^prefer" the niel diamond version. But my head defaults to status quo

Incidentally, Instant Replay and Rwlight my Fire are both Dan Hartman songs, so they sound similar.

I think on on of their Top of the Pops or other 'live' performances of Relight my Fire, they went into a sample of singing 'let's go round again' as a bit of a mash up of two songs but I have no idea who sang it 🤔

That's interesting… though I didn't watch TOTP or other TV performances, so I can't have got it directly from that. These things can spill into the general consciousness, though, I guess.
