Terry (Kirsty Mac Coll Song)
"Terry" is a song by Kirsty MacColl, released as a single in October 1983, and charting at #82 in the UK the following month. It was her first release after returning to Stiff Records, and was the last in a run of poorly-selling singles released between "There's a Guy Works Down the Chip Shop Swears He's Elvis" and "A New England".
Just over a year later, in January 1985, Tracey Ullman took the song one place higher on the UK charts, peaking at #81. Ullman's version of "Terry" used the identical backing track to the MacColl version, merely erasing MacColl's lead vocal and substituting Ullman's. (MacColl co-produced both versions of "Terry".)

Famous quotes containing the word terry:
“There is all the difference in the world between departure from recognised rules by one who has learned to obey them, and neglect of them through want of training or want of skill or want of understanding. Before you can be eccentric you must know where the circle is.”
—Ellen Terry (1847–1928)
