Английская Википедия:Hot Shot (Cliff Richard song)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox song "Hot Shot" is a song performed by Cliff Richard and released as a single in October 1979. Written by Terry Britten and B. A. Robertson, it was the second single lifted from Richard's 1979 album Rock 'n' Roll Juvenile. It reached no. 46 in the UK Singles Chart.[1]
Release
"Hot Shot" was released as the follow-up single to the international hit "We Don't Talk Anymore". However, it failed to repeat its success, failing to make the top 40 in the UK, peaking at number 46 and spending a total of five weeks in the top 75. It did, however, perform better in Ireland, peaking at number 27.[1][2]
For the compilation album My Kinda Life – A Selection of 14 Great Songs 1992 Version, new instrumentation, recorded in April 1992, was added to an alternative take of the original song.[3]
