    Still the most brilliant music video that’s ever existed or ever will be. Jarvis Cocker as Brian May at the end is too perfect for this world.

    I take some degree of amused pride in being able to name every artist being "covered" in this video as they appear... and some of these are British artists from the late 90s who have since gone obscure lol. I guess all the readings of Q magazine in Borders back then helped. Final notes... "Kurt" was a bit too much of a buffonish mockery than a loving tribute here... love the serious Gary Numan spoof though good for a chuckle

    The word's on the street
    You've found someone new
    If he looks nothing like me
    I'm so happy for you
    I heard an old girlfriend
    Has turned to the church
    She's trying to replace me
    But it'll never work
    'Cause every touch reminds you of
    Just how sweet it could have been
    And every time he kisses you
    It leaves behind the bitter taste of saccharine
    A bad cover version of love
    Is not the real thing
    Bikini-clad girl on the front
    Who invited you in?
    Such great disappointment
    When you got him home
    The original was so good
    The one you no longer own
    And every touch reminds you of
    Just how sweet it could have been
    And every time he kisses you
    You get the taste of saccharine
    It's not easy to forget me
    It's so hard to disconnect
    When it's electronically reprocessed
    To give a more life-like effect
    Ah, sing your song
    About all the sad imitations
    That got it so wrong
    It's like a later "Tom & Jerry"
    When the two of them could talk
    Like the Stones since the Eighties
    Like the last days of Southfork
    Like "Planet of the Apes" on TV
    The second side of "'Til the Band Comes In"
    Like an own-brand box of cornflakes
    He's going to let you down my friend
