What that song?

Someone put me out of my misery.

There was a breakdance song out in the early 80s that got in the charts and played on TOTP. It had whistling in the tune and there were 3 or 4 guys in shiny matching tracksuits in the group. I've a feeling it's called "Street Life" or "Street Dance" or "Street -something-". It had proper verse-chorus-verse lyrics my recollection of them is dim.

Jog any memories?

Now, if someone can find the EP online to download, that would be just perfect

(iTunes Music Store has it but I refuse to buy stuff from them on the grounds that I can't play the songs on my Squeezebox )
