[2] Haysi Fantayzee was an avant-garde, new wave pop project emanating from the Blitz Kids street arts scene in London in the early 1980s.
The group's music combined reggae, country and electro with political and sociological lyrics couched as nursery rhymes.
[3] Haysi Fantayzee combined their extreme clothes sense – described[4] as combining white Rasta, tribal chieftain and Dickensian styles – with a quirky musical sound comparable to, but distinct from, other new wave musical pop acts of the era, such as Bow Wow Wow, Adam and the Ants and Bananarama.
[6] Before they were signed, the band attracted attention by sending video performances with their demo tapes to record companies, a highly unusual practice at the time.
Healy released the single "When Malindy Sings" in 1984, and later became a DJ and album mixer for other artists, including his former schoolfriend Boy George.
