No. It's an original as far as I know and from their best album: More Noises and Other Disturbances. It's a lot edgier than later releases.

I dig More Noises and Other Disturbances but I have to say I disagree about it being their best. My favorite is probably their first album Devil's Night Out, the album "Hope I Never Lose My Wallet" is from. EDIT: Ah, according to Wikipedia it is a cover of a Slapshot song. I never knew that!

Strangely enough, this is the first MB thread I've come across that's devoted to dance. Is that just me, or does MB under-represent dance ? Anyway, if you want to try legitimate skanking, you gotta learn some steps, I guess - otherwise, as someone said on page one, it's just dancing. ^ This sounds so much like the opposite of fun, but never having tried it I can't say for sure.

^The background music in the video isn't what I expected.
It reminds me of two things, one: the Pony, & two: how they use to dance in Ska bands. I am not sure when and where the term originated. But it seems it evolved and cross genres. Ben Carr from the Mighty Mighty Bosstones has been accused of "skanking," but I don't know if that is what they called it back in the 70s. In Ska, I guess it can range from the very subtle (like Ranking Roger) to more elaborate ways (like the whole Selecter band). The Mighty Mighty Bosstones always seem like a Two-tone revival band, and took everything they could from those bands, even their dance moves. I guess it takes America a decade and half to wake up to what's happening in the UK? nah j/k ("I kid, I am a kidder.")
