500 miles (disambiguation)
in 2007, the proclaimers re-recorded the song with peter kay and matt lucas as their characters brian potter from "phoenix nights" and andy pipkin from "little britain" respectively. there is a slight change in the title of the song, with the parentheses placed around "i'm gonna be" rather than "500 miles". the lyrics also include a change, with the words "roll 500 miles" replacing "walk 500 miles", because the characters brian potter and andy pipkin are both in wheelchairs. "(i'm gonna be) 500 miles" was released as a charity single for comic relief immediately following its performance on the "comic relief 2007: the big one" television show on bbc1 on 16 march 2007. it reached number 3 on the official uk singles chart on download sales alone, and one week later reached number 1, where it remained for three weeks. it sold 126,000 copies in its first week, making it the biggest selling number one of the year up to that point. its sales were double that of the official comic relief single by girls aloud vs. sugababes, and their cover of aerosmith's "walk this way". the song ended 2007 as the year's 8th biggest-selling single in the uk. the song was popular in ireland as well, and peaked at #7 in irish singles chart.
