Cheapskate
Cheapskate is a US-only single from Britpop band Supergrass' second album In It For The Money that rose to #35 for four weeks on the US Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart. While being only a 7" promotional single, it has an accompanying music video, that was, for an unknown reason, left off the Supergrass Is 10 DVD. The song is said by the band themselves to have drawn influences from Kool & The Gang.
cheapskate
A miser is a person who is reluctant to spend, sometimes to the point of forgoing even basic comforts and some necessities, in order to hoard money or other possessions. Although the word is sometimes used loosely to characterise anyone who is mean with their money, if such behaviour is not accompanied by taking delight in what is saved, it is not properly miserly. Misers as a type have been a perennial object of popular fascination and a fruitful source for writers and artists in many cultures.
