A typically perky and pertinent tune from Hibbett, it is, we’re told, inspired by Phil Wilson of Creation act The June Brides – who himself was obviously in an indie band once, and after time served on civvy street, resurrected his true career.
Which is what happens to Mark Hibbet’s boss in the tune. The video even features Validators drummer Tim who was himself also in an indie band (Prolapse to be exact).
That aside it’s simply another marvelously catchy singalong bit of twee silliness with witty lyrics, and just a wee bit of poignancy that will ring true with failed popstars everywhere.
