The song was written by the band's main songwriter, John O'Neill,[1] it was The Undertones' third single and was released on 20 April 1979, reaching number 16 on the UK Singles Chart, making "Jimmy Jimmy" The Undertones' first Top 20 single. The song was included on both the original issue and subsequent reissue of the band's debut album, The Undertones. Two versions of the single were issued: A conventional black vinyl version of the single housed in a yellow paper sleeve sporting a photograph of the band's lead singer, Feargal Sharkey, as a youngster, holding a trophy he had won at a Fèis Doíre Colmcílle festival,[2] and a green vinyl version—displaying the same image—housed in a clear plastic sleeve with a paper inlay detailing dates and venues of then-forthcoming gigs across the United Kingdom.[3] The decision to simultaneously release "Jimmy Jimmy" on both coloured and traditional black vinyl was made by Sire Records to give the single a competitive edge in the charts following the relative commercial failure of the band's previous single, "Get over You".[4] Track listing{{tracklist| headline = Side one | extra_column = Written by | title1 = Jimmy Jimmy | extra1 = John O'Neill | length1 = 2:45 }}{{tracklist | headline = Side two | extra_column = Written by | title1 = Mars Bars | extra1 = Damian O'Neill, Michael Bradley | length1 = 2:08 }} References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.theundertones.com/_/Singles-Historical.html |title=Singles-Historical |website=Theundertones.com |date= |accessdate=2016-10-15}} 2. ^{{cite book|title=Teenage Kicks: My Life as an Undertone|page=137|publisher=Omnibus Press|date=2016|isbn=978-1785581809|author=Michael Bradley}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://eil.com/shop/moreinfo.asp?catalogid=295860 |title=The Undertones Jimmy Jimmy - Green vinyl UK 7" vinyl single (7 inch record) (295860) |website=Eil.com |date=2002-03-14 |accessdate=2016-10-15}} 4. ^{{cite book|title=Teenage Kicks: My Life as an Undertone|page=138|publisher=Omnibus Press|date=2016|isbn=978-1785581809|author=Michael Bradley}} External links
