Follow One Pound Fish Man

Muhammad Shahid Nazir, now known as £1 Fish Man,moved to London's East End having left his native Pakistan and his wife and four children to discover a better life for them all. Working on a market stall selling fish, Nazir needed a trader's call to grab passing trade. His song became the stuff of legend and a viral sensation: "Have-a, have-a look, one pound fish. Very, very good, very, very cheap, one pound fish."

After a video of him was uploaded to YouTube, Nazir saw himself accelerated into the spotlight: he auditioned on the X-Factor, saw his '£1 Fish Song' covered separately by superstar producer Timbaland and singer Alesha Dixon and was profiled by the Evening Standard who declared: "Watch out Psy, you've got a rival" and The Sun who stated: "It might just be the Christmas No. 1."

This is what the internet should be used for: finding obscure fish salesmen and helping them create dope club remixes.

This song just so happened to invade my brain while I was doing unit conversions for math class LMFAO. So happy I still remember this song after 10+ years. Truly the biggest ear worm to ever be conceived while selling fish.

8 years later and this song is still a banger…people saying who’s here in 2021…the fish expires not the song

For a market stall holder who went viral this is seriously impressive. He has very good screen presence and charisma, also has the likeability factor. The mix is good as well, I don't know if that's a sitar I can hear but whatever it is it's interesting and really adds to it. Not to mention six fish for 5 pound is a bargain.

Dropping my daughter off at infant school yesterday and a couple of the kids were singing this, absolutely cracking up. Couldn’t believe my ears. Had to revisit this cult classic
