1983 single by Status Quo
"Marguerita Time" is a 1983 song by the British rock band Status Quo. It was the third track to be released as a single from their 1983 album Back to Back.[2] The single was also issued as a limited edition picture disc, and in a Christmas double pack that included "Caroline"/"Joanne". The single became one of the band`s biggest hits, peaking at no. 3 on the UK Singles Chart and was later certified Silver by the BPI for sales in excess of 250,000 copies.
Bassist Alan Lancaster recalled "Nobody but Francis [Rossi] wanted to record it. All it did was advertise that we were a bunch of nerds".[3] Lancaster refused to appear in the band`s video for the song. When the band mimed the song on BBC`s Top of the Pops, on one occasion Lancaster`s place was taken by Slade`s Jim Lea.
The song was reprised, in 2014, for the band`s 31st studio album Aquostic – Stripped Bare. It was featured in the ninety-minute launch performance for the album at London`s Roundhouse on 22 October, broadcast live by BBC Radio 2 as part of their In Concert series.[4][5]
Dexys Midnight Runners covered the song on the B-side of their single "This Is What She`s Like". This recording was included on some reissues of that band`s Too-Rye-Ay album.
