No apoligies needed great video ,the wrong song was chosen Don`t Throw It Al away was a far better song.I wonder if the sunburst Strat was the one Hank got from Tony Hicks of The Hollies.

Musically, this is the 1962 single with orchestral bits edited in. Hilarious.

I agree with Derek, Don't Throw It All Away was the best song.

Don't Throw It All Away was definitely the best song by far, but I suppose LMBTO was more 'Eurovisiony'. BTW, the sunburst Strat here was a brand new 70s one, not the one Hank got from Tony Hicks.

Olivia did Don't Throw It All Away for her 1976 Come On Over album which, if memory serves, was certified RIAA Gold in the US. So at least the writers got some royalties.

The one song i cannot stand is 'This house runs on sunshine' (sorry Brian). It's truly awful.
My personal favourite is Stand up like a man.
