who sang the song i put my blue jeans on
Lord David Dundas Dundas was born in Oxford, the son of Lawrence Dundas, 3rd Marquess of Zetland, and his wife Penelope Pike, and was educated at Harrow and the Central School of Speech and Drama. His 1976 single "Jeans On" reached No. 3 in the UK Singles Chart,[1] No. 17 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and No. 1 in the German Singles Charts, where the song remained 19 weeks in the Top Ten.[2] The song originally appeared as a television advertising jingle for Brutus Jeans[3] (the words used in the jingle - "I pull my Brutus jeans on" - were replaced with "I pull my old blue jeans on" for the single release). The single was later sampled by Fatboy Slim for his track "Sho Nuff" which was also used in an advertisement in 2006 for SEAT Ibiza. Dundas's follow-up single, "Another Funny Honeymoon" was a medium-sized hit, reaching #29 in the UK.[1] Dundas performed the song live on the BBC Television show, Top of the Pops, in 1977. A later single, "Where Were You Today", based on a C&A radio commercial ("Come and C and A" being replaced by the song title) was less successful. Jingles made by Dundas for Capital Radio were played daily on the station in the 1970s: "Grab a little piece of heaven, with Roger Scott from 3 to 7" and "Get a little soft rock, country, blues, with Tony Myatt from 11 to 2".
Blue-collar worker The term blue collar was first used in reference to trades jobs in 1924, in an Alden, Iowa newspaper.[1]  The phrase stems from the image of manual workers wearing blue denim or chambray shirts as part of their uniforms.[2] Industrial and manual workers often wear durable canvas or cotton clothing that may be soiled during the course of their work. Navy and light blue colors conceal potential dirt or grease on the worker's clothing, helping him or her to appear cleaner. For the same reason, blue is a popular color for boilersuits which protect workers' clothing. Some blue collar workers have uniforms with the name of the business and/or the individual's name embroidered or printed on it.
