Unusual for this kind of direct parody, this song reached Number One in the UK (November 1975). And the song that knocked it off that lofty perch was Bohemian Rhapsody by Q.U.E.E.N. Queen. Tammy Wynette's original song only reached number 12 in the UK.

Billy was funny in those days.Tony Blackburrn ranted on BBC1 about how much the idea of divorce could not possibly be funny,because he was going through one at that time.But Billy Connolly's version of this song was funny.And Billy was a funny guy,until swearing came into stand up comedy,and only a few people ,like George Carlin,could really pull it off.Billy Connolly tried the Carlin shit,and despite being the Glasgow boy,it just didn't work.
