Ernie K-Doe was an African American rhythm and blues singer who sadly passed away in 2001.
Never originally a hit here, "Here Come The Girls" has debuted on the UK Charts (last week at #71) and is set to climb into the Top 40 this afternoon.
Here's the reason for it's upsurge (it's use in the 2007 Christmas advert for Boots): www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xgw0Lb0hXmA
His biggest and only hit in the UK was previously "Mother-In-Law" which made #29 in May 1961, this was also his biggest hit in the US (#1 on the HOT 100).
