Shakin' Stevens, also known as "Shaky", was born in 1972, having been hatching since 1957 in the laboratory for Rock and Roll Science at the University of Lancastershire in England. When fully programmed, he was launched upon an unsuspecting British public who took him to their hearts immediately. He was instantly hated by Terry Wogan for no reason. However, the University of Lancastershire could not survive without the incoming flood of royalty cheques, and using some of Shakey's DNA they created Rachel Stevens who continues to fund their work to this day. “He's a cunt.” ~ Terry Wogan

  • Shakin' Stevens, also known as "Shaky", was born in 1972, having been hatching since 1957 in the laboratory for Rock and Roll Science at the University of Lancastershire in England. When fully programmed, he was launched upon an unsuspecting British public who took him to their hearts immediately. He was instantly hated by Terry Wogan for no reason. Credited for bringing Rock and Roll to England, Shakey clobbered both Elvis and Tom Jones in the charts. Hits such as "Something Something About A Green Door", "This Ol' Rotting Corpse I Found In This House" and "Snow is Falling All Around Our Christmas Old House" ensured his popularity lasted well into the 1990's. However, he retired in 1998 citing the earlier death of Kurt Cobain as having robbed mordern music of all meaning. However, the University of Lancastershire could not survive without the incoming flood of royalty cheques, and using some of Shakey's DNA they created Rachel Stevens who continues to fund their work to this day. Shakey is also one of only seven people to have achieved the quadrilateral bounce up to the Mid Section of the Gifted Legs Federation, skipping The Lower Section altogether. A rare honour. “He's a cunt.” ~ Terry Wogan
