[edit] Trivia

The instrumental background of this track is the same one used for the Eastern Motors commercials in the Washington, DC area featuring LaVar Arrington, Clinton Portis, and others. These ads have gained somewhat of a cult following.[1]

This song is used in a scene of She's The Man when Amanda Bynes's character Viola (disguised as Sebastian) gains the admiration of her roommate and his friends by having her pretty friends posing as girls who, despite having been dumped, still desire him (her).
