Can someone explain the Black Kids/Kate Nash connection and what is going on with this clever, catchy and unusual song?

Jason Iley won a bidding war for the Black Kids and got Kate Nash to cover the song.

CLEVER: What's clever about this song is the hype surrounding it.

CATCHY: The hype makes it 'catchy' in certain peoples minds.

UNUSUAL: It's not unusual for a poor song to reach such a status through hype, but this song is unusually poor.

As far as I'm concerned the song is poor and the original demo's that were banded around made it below poor standard. I've heard a remix of it that raises it back to normal poor standard but I'm being kind.

Complete hyped bolox IMHO.

They're a spectacularly inept band live. How the hell did they get signed? More scenester crap.

Well I like it - it reminds me of Wannabe - but it rather kills the clever lyric when a girl sings it - to explain, a BOY sings this...

You are the girl that I've been dreaming of ever since I was a little girl.
