[edit] The Song
The second track was written by two of the band members, Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones, and former Busted member James Bourne. The track is generally considered "lighter" and much more "laid-back" than their last single, Five Colours In Her Hair. The lyrics speak of a young woman the band members fancy but cannot have due to the fact she has a boyfriend who's older than them and in the Marines. It came 5th in a BBC poll to find the UK's top 40 singles of 2004.
[edit] The Video
The video features the boys as caddies in a golf game which features the characters mentioned in the song. The band members eventually have fun around the golf course on the buggies. Shots also involve them being in a hall where they play their instruments.
