OK, why am I so hooked on this song?

I saw the commercial about 2 weeks ago and can't get this song out of my head. So I go on a search to find this song. Youtube right?

Great, now I know its by The Icicles. Next stop, google the band name. Yep, it's them alright.

Then, I think, let's have a look at them. I fully expect to see some teenage looking group, and this is what I find:

Guess I just didn't expect to see that.

Yeah, not what you'd expect by hearing that track. I even wonder if the real band have their parents pose for the band promo photos!

I watch very little TV so I hadn't seen that advert before. Certainly would have caught my ear, though. Catchy as sin.


I recommend that you hear the full version on their website. In full stereophonic sound....makes me want to buy the CD!

Thanks for putting this up. Wouldn't have heard the song otherwise...until I eventually saw the commercial!

No matter what I do, I can't get that link to open properly, what am I missing?
