Goldie Lookin' Chain took comedy rap pastiche to great heights in 2004.
After some years as closely-guarded word-of-mouth local favourites in South Wales, the band were signed to the big Atlantic Records and the hits began coming.
You Knows I Loves You was released in 2004 and reached number 22 in the UK charts with its bargain-basement romantic sentiments such as: "I bought you this necklace / It cost me 12 pounds / From Argos, Elizabeth Duke / Maybe you're the Skywalker to my Luke".
If you're after a song with absolutely no trace of schmaltz, this is about the best. Just be aware that the album version doesn't spare the rude words.
You can watch a video of the song on .
