I wonder how well would this song do is this was released right after "Goodbye Mr. A" instead of the follow-up that did not chart top 75 earlier week.

That Mariah line is brilliant :rofl:

Catalogue Number: 88697271242

Label: EPIC

 

Gentle piano-led indie popsters whose self-titled debut hit the top spot in the UK album chart in 2008. Musically, Scouting For Girls (the band's name a mildly humorous play on Robert Baden-Powell's 'Scouting For Boys' handbook) are similar to the Ben Folds Five, but lyrically they are closer to the Arctic Monkeys. After building up a large MySpace following (naturally their fans are known as Wolf Cubs), Scouting For Girls signed to Epic. The SCOUTING FOR GIRLS album featured the top ten singles "She's So Lovely" and the witty "Elvis Ain't Dead". - HMV
