WTF is it?! - SV650.org

Reyt Org I'm in need of your assistance and I figured somebody here would know this.

A couple of months back I found a really good song by a really good band but can't for the life of me remember the name of the band or song.

The lead singer is a woman, a very fit one at that, with longish brown hair and the video features her singing into vary telephones while walkign around.

It's sort of synthy pop.

I'm pretty sure the name of the band is something along the lines of The Great _____ Catastrophe.

Summat along those lines anyway.

I used to love it when I had a Saturday job in Our Price and people used to come in and say "I don't know the band or the song title but I want to buy this record and it goes... [proceed to hum something tunelessly]".

The staff would give them a blank look, even if we did know which song it was and then choose a track completely at odds with the customer. Middle aged woman, sell them Iron Maiden. Indie kid, swear to them it was a Kool and the Gang classic they were humming.

Well, at least your fun didn't hurt Our Price's success at all.
