The Mental As Anything track has been adopted by Light Blues supporters since their win over Celtic back in October.
A viral video released by ultra group the Union Bears helped circulate the tune as they took part in a sticker stunt following the Old Firm victory.
And now, Australian TV presenters have reacted to the story.
The host of This Morning stated: “Now for a blast from the past, an Australian classic has risen to number one in the UK charts, 35 years after it was released.
“Live It Up by Mental As Anything has been adopted by Glasgow Rangers.

“Rangers fans are also hoping the song will take the coveted number one spot in the Christmas charts in two weeks time.”
Another presenter asked: “How does it fit with Glasgow Rangers?
“How does the lyrics of that song fit? It’s about picking up a chick, in the 80s. It’s a great song.”
The host then concluded: “I think we should all get behind Rangers.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
