    Lyrics:
    I am the one and only, oh yeah
    Call me, call me by my name or call me by number
    You put me through it
    I'll still be doing it the way I do it
    And yet, you try to make me forget
    Who I really am, don't tell me I know best
    I'm not the same as all the rest
    I am the one and only
    Nobody I'd rather be
    I am the one and only
    You can't take that away from me
    I've been a player in the crowd scene
    A flicker on the big screen
    My soul embraces one more in a million faces
    High hopes and aspirations, and years above my station
    Maybe but all this time I've tried to walk with dignity and pride
    I am the one and only
    Nobody I'd rather be
    I am the one and only
    You can't take that away from me
    I can't wear this uniform without some compromises
    Because you'll find out that we come
    In different shapes and sizes
    No one can be myself like I can
    For this job I'm the best man
    And while this may be true
    You are the one and only you
    I am the one and only
    Nobody I'd rather be
    I am the one and only
    You can't take that away from me
    I am the one and only
    Nobody I'd rather be
    I am the one and only
    You can't take that away from me

      You got to understand that usually the first couple years of a new decade often carry on whatever sound happened in the previous decade before some big event or cultural revolution changes everything. With the 60s it was the Kennedy assassination and British Invasion that broke it away from 50s conservatism. The 70s had Disco and Punk revolutions to define the decade. The 80s began where the 70s ended before New Wave, Heavy Metal and pop stars began to dominate the charts. As for the 90s, nothing really happened until Grunge and Pop-Punk created a new reason to rebel and start a band. This song was released just prior to the Cultural revolution.

      I used to get such a slagging back in the day for loving this song and the film it belongs to . Still watch Buddy's Song to this day! A song with a great pop writer like Nik Kershaw behind it and Chesney who is a very underrated talent and the son of a Pop legacy His dad being Chip Hawkes from the Tremelos. The original origin of Buddy was a book by Nigel Hinton (which they still study in secondary school) to this day. There is also a television series that accompanies the book although it was made long before the film Rodger Daltery ( Of the Who Fame) played Terry (Buddy's dad) in both the series and the film. Chesney only played Buddy in the film after a star search on Breakfast TV if I remember right. Will always be a favourite.

    Doc Hollywood! What else can be said? This song is one of those earworms you hear right at the beginning of the movie, and then forget about it for the duration. Then, when you go home, you try and figure out what the hell it was you were hearing! I'm just happy it's not 1991 anymore, and I have the internet to look these things up now instead of forget them for 30+ years!

Contrary to the mood of the movie, most of the people weren't all that friendly. One of my favorite "feel good" movies though, and this song has got to be one of the very best of its era!

    In the early 90's when this song came out, I was going to a school in a particular area of my town. In that area is a golf course and not far is where some family friends live in lovely neighbourhood (they have lived there more than 50 years) and a small corner shop that I used to get treats from.
    More than thirty two years later, every time I visit that area, this song begins playing in my head and brings back those times in an instant. It feels good to go back to when things were simpler, if only momentarily
    It is nothing short of astonishing how certain songs are inextricably linked subconsciously by our minds to particular times and eras when we lived.
