November 20, 2015 11:39am CST
If you ever wondered what the terribly British and pointless party dance, The Hokey Kokey played at countless weddings and birthday parties would sound like done by synthesiser music giants, Kraftwerk, in German, this classic Bill Bailey piece will show you. Bailey is a brilliant comedian, actor and musician. Arthur Chappell
Kraftwerk clip taken from Part Troll DVD. Filmed at Hammersmith Apollo, London in 2004

I remember hearing this on the variety shows from way back in the 1960s @arthurchappell I think she was also a guest star on a couple of those shows.

there is a famous song called Won't You Come Home Bill Bailey? too which is nothing to do with the comedian. Here is Ella Fitzgerald's version of it

I love Bill Bailey ... saw him live last year and then again just a week or so ago. He makes me giggle.

Quite a card is our Bil, multi-talented! A shame somebody stole his van from outside a gig recently, I'm sure he'll have something to say about that in his next stage appearance there!

@pgntwo yes and no. I just looked up more details. It was crashed into a parked car in Liverpool and most the van's contents were removed. There is CCTV footage of the alleged creep who took it so his photo has been circulated widely now
