Written by Francis Rossi and Bob Young and produced by Status Quo, "Down Down" was Status Quo's only number one single on the UK Singles Chart. The single spent a week at the top of the chart in January 1975.[1] It was released on 29 November 1974 on the Vertigo label, paired with the B-side song "Nightride". Both songs came from the album On the Level, which had yet to be released. The album version lasts 5 minutes and 24 seconds and the single version 3 minutes and 49 seconds. Originally it was titled "Get Down", but this was changed before release, possibly to avoid confusion with the Gilbert O'Sullivan song of the same name.{{citation needed|date=March 2014}} Towards the end of his life, DJ John Peel was known for playing "Down Down" as part of his eclectic DJ sets.[2] In 1986 co-writer Bob Young recorded a country style version of "Down Down" to open his solo album In Quo Country.[3] In July 2012, Status Quo reworked the lyrics to create a three-minute promotional song for the Australian supermarket chain Coles.[4] The chorus chants, "down, down, prices are down". This was released on television and YouTube, the most notable of which depicted a mince rally.[5][6] The song was reprised, in 2014, for the band's thirty-first studio album Aquostic (Stripped Bare). It was featured in the ninety-minute launch performance of the album at London's Roundhouse on 22 October and recorded and broadcast live by BBC Radio 2 as part of their In Concert series.[7][8] References1. ^{{cite book | first= David | last= Roberts | year= 2006 | title= British Hit Singles & Albums | edition= 19th | publisher= Guinness World Records Limited | location= London | isbn= 1-904994-10-5 | page= 309}} 2. ^{{cite news|url=http://arts.guardian.co.uk/features/story/0,,855214,00.html|title=John Peel's comments on playing 'Down Down', in The Guardian | location=London | date=2002-12-07 | accessdate=2010-05-01 | first=Chris | last=Mugan}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.cherryred.co.uk/product/back-in-quo-country-expanded-edition/|title=Back In Quo Country: Expanded Edition – Cherry Red Records|publisher=herryred.co.uk|accessdate=22 January 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web |author=Alex Hayes |url=http://www.bandt.com.au/news/advertising/status-quo-rock-for-coles-commercial |title=Status Quo rock for Coles commercial | B&T |publisher=Bandt.com.au |date=2012-07-11 |accessdate=2014-03-27 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140407201028/http://www.bandt.com.au/news/advertising/status-quo-rock-for-coles-commercial |archivedate=2014-04-07 |df= }} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pniH2-r6dZU |title=Coles Mince is Staying Down with Status Quo - Coles TV Ad |publisher=YouTube |date=2013-07-23 |accessdate=2016-07-22}} 6. ^{{cite news|url=http://mumbrella.com.au/brit-rockers-status-quo-perform-prices-are-down-for-coles-102552|title=Status Quo perform Down, Down for Coles|publisher=Mumbrella.com.au| location=Australia | date=2012-07-11}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/status-quo/2014/roundhouse-london-england-bccc99e.html|title=Status Quo Concert Setlist at Roundhouse, London on October 22, 2014 - setlist.fm|work=setlist.fm|accessdate=25 February 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/profiles/t5RRN4k2Y2dDhcxdtkfjfN/status-quo-acoustic |title=Status Quo - Acoustic |work=Radio 2 In Concert |publisher=bbc.co.uk|date= |accessdate=25 February 2015}} External links
