Back in the day I liked The Bluebells (I even shared a fire escape platform with them once)

And then that bloody advert came out and suddenly everybody knows their song - the twats.

The bloke she kisses in the advert is a mate of mine. He was recently one of the racist extremist gang in Corry. Useless bit of info for the day.
