"Everyone was kung-foo fight" (da du da dum dum) "they were fast as lightening!" (dada dum a dum) "it was a little bit frightening"

i know that the first ten are
1. Los Del Rio - "Macarena" (1996)
2. Soft Cell - "Tainted Love" (1982)
3. Dexys Midnight Runners - "Come On Eileen" (1982)
4. Right Said Fred - "I'm Too Sexy" (1991)
