Video: Sing along if you know the words - the £1 fish song

A fishmonger in east London has become something of an internet sensation after his simple but lyrical song went viral, begging the question — are we missing out on something?

The one pound fish song (video below) has made Muhammed Shahid Nazir something of a local celebrity, with schoolchildren singing his anthem, and even passing football fans are going out of their way to witness a live performance.

In fact, the song has become that catchy that boy band Mindless Behaviour have decided to produce their own R and B version, which at the time of writing has had over 85,000 hits on YouTube. Even Alesha Dixon is now getting in on the act…
