Happy Mondays fans just realising hit song is a cover – the original made history Fans of the legendary Manchester band Happy Mondays are just discovering that one of their biggest hits is actually a cover.
Fans are only now realising the song is a cover, with one shocked fan saying the information has "twisted my melon man" in reference to one of the song's most iconic lyrics.
Despite its legendary status, however, some fans were surprised to learn that the Happy Mondays' rendition of the hit track wasn't an original piece.
Fans of the Bez and Shaun Ryder version were stumped after finding out the original had made history years before the band covered it.
He's Gonna Step on You Again, the song from Kongos' self-titled album, sampled a tape loop of African drumming and made history for the Fly Records label.
