On August 4, 2008 the track was premiered for the first time on Ken Bruce's radio show on BBC Radio 2.

Composition

The song tells the story from the point of view of an aspiring celebrity, who does not let their apparent lack of talent hold them back.

The song's main riff bears a strong resemblance to that of the 1990 Judas Priest song "A Touch of Evil".
