This should be in the music forum, but I just had a personal epic win.

Well as it seems I'm banned from the music forums I'm posting this here. Delete if you want. No biggie.

Anyways, a few months ago in the music forum I asked if anyone knew this song that was in french, and kind of sounded like a mix between first wave punk and the beach boys. I'd heard it on the radio about 30 times since I was a little kid, always loved the song, but they never said who it was.
Anyhoo, I was listening to the song "Jet boy jet girl" by Elton Motello and suddenly realized "Damn this song sounds a lot like the one I'm thinking of but it's in English".
Sooo...I did a few minutes of searching and found out the song I'm thinking of is a "cover" by Plastic bertrand. So, for those of you who were trying to help me figure out what song I was talking about...Here it is... (Once again, delete if you want. I just didnt know where else to post it).

I knew the song "Jet boy jet girl" which is about fucking this dude and then the dude go's straight and leaves you for a girl (Chorus: Ooh ooh ooh ooh - He Gives Me Head). But I guess to make it less offensive they had this other band do it in french? I dunno. Fucking weird. This song has literally taken me 11 years to find.
