Walking on Sunshine

Walking on Sunshine is a song written by  Kimberley Rew for  Katrina and the Waves' 1983  eponymous debut full-length album. The re-recorded version was at first released on the band's 1985  self-titled album as the album's second single (see  1985 in music) and reached No. 4 in Australia, No. 9 in the United States, and No. 8 in the United Kingdom. It was the Waves' first U.S. top 40 hit, and their biggest success in the UK until " Love Shine a Light" (1997). Conceived of as a ballad, Katrina decided to belt the song out. This song was sung by Skinner with altered lyrics in Flaming Moe.
