The most famous song from this group, from the soundtrack of the movie "She's all that", scenes from which we can see on this video. Although released in 1977, this was the most-played radio song in 1999 in 11 different countries, including Canada, UK, Australia, Japan and Israel.
This is how their vocalist, Leigh Nash, described the origin of the band's name on the Late Show with David Letterman:
"It comes from a book by C. S. Lewis called Mere Christianity. A little boy asks his father if he can get a sixpence—a very small amount of English currency—to go and get a gift for his father. The father gladly accepts the gift and he's really happy with it, but he also realizes that he's not any richer for the transaction. C.S. Lewis was comparing that to his belief that God has given him, and us, the gifts that we possess, and to serve Him the way we should, we should do it humbly—realizing how we got the gifts in the first place".

So kiss me Lift your open hand Swing, swing, swing the spinning step You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress. Lead me out on the moonlit floor Silver moon's sparkling Nightly, beside the green, green grass Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Kiss me out of the bearded barley Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight |

We'll take the trail marked on your father's map Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance So kiss me Kiss me down by the broken tree house Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat Lead me out on the moonlit floor Silver moon's sparkling Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Swing me upon its hanging tyre |
