The Ball And Chain is a more common name for the song "Make This Love Right", written and produced by New Jersey house music producer Romanthony. The song was released on Azuli Records of New York in 1993. The song is significant as it was something of a cultural craze/anomaly in the city of Cork, Republic of Ireland, in the late 1990's where it became an anthem for younger people. Copies of this rather innocuous record were routinely sold for close to IE£100 (€127) in the city and it received extensive air-play on mainstream local radio and in nightclubs.
