Cool for Cats, released in March 1979, was the second single from Squeeze's Cool for Cats album. It featured a comparatively rare lead vocal performance from Squeeze lyricist Chris Difford, one of only two occasions he sang lead on a Squeeze single A-side (the other was 1989's "Love Circles"). It peaked at #2 on the UK Singles Chart, making it one of the band's biggest hits. Difford brought a cockney accent to the way the lyrics were sung which makes it distinctive as well.
