"Amateur Hour" is a song by Sparks. It was released as the second single from the album Kimono My House. A rerecording was produced in 1997 for the retrospective Plagiarism album. This new version was given a complete electronic synthpop overhaul and was performed with Erasure. On 25 June 2009 the song Amateur Hour was involved in an unusual stunt when UK mind reader Mark Cairns predicted that radio personality George Lamb would choose the Sparks song in a free choice from a list of 100 tracks that had been recently played on Lambs BBC 6 Music show.
