"Mr Blobby" is a novelty song performed by character Mr Blobby, famous for appearing in the TV programme Noel's House Party. The song originally peaked at No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart on 11 December 1993 for one week but reclaimed the top spot to become the Christmas number one single, and spent a total of three weeks at No. 1. It was written by Philip Raxster, produced by Paul Shaw and David Rogers and was released on 22 November 1993. Despite its chart success, it has been critically panned by critics, often naming it as one of the worst songs ever recorded.
