- Brian Harvey is wearing an entire Scottish Gift Shoppe.
- They all look like they shouldn't be left alone with musical instruments.

- It's all a bit like the Cadbury's Gorilla advert.
- Only they keep pissing themselves laughing.
- But in a carefully manufactured way.
I mean, it's such a girlie song. East 17 were supposed to shag you roughly on a Peugeot using a mars bar wrapper as a prophylactic.
