oo yoo lookin at
Why that's the preternaturally chiseled John Robb isn't it, popping up unexpectedly in this recent-ish video for an old New Wave / pop-punk tune... (not the bloke with the finger up his nose, I hasten to add, but later in the video). This is a chorus - "oo you lookin at? oo you LOOKING at? you better not be looking at me?" - that has been popping into my head recently (and sometimes out of my mouth) for no apparent reason. The single got a lot of play on Radio One back in the day, in the evening mostly, and I think got to something like #74 in the pop charts.

more pub-ish than punk-ish
