Did we just mention Bob Gaudio? We can't do that without also pointing out that he was a former member of the band The Royal Teens of Short Shorts fame. You know who else was in that band? Al Kooper, who went on to Blood Sweat in 10 Things I Hate About You, Heath Ledger performs a riotous version complete with marching band as he seeks to woo Julia Stiles. Covered by the likes of the Manic Street Preachers it tells an audience we're not as deep as you think we are. It's a full-proof karaoke standby for non-singers the world over and on the football terraces it's a song that lends itself perfectly to virtually anyone.
