Indentify this indie record

May 26, 2006 9:57 AM

Need help identifying a recent-ish Kaiser Chiefs/Arctive Monkeys/Futureheads/etc nu-indie NME type record...

The chorus goes

bingbongbingbongbingbongbingbong bingbong bingbong... my my.
bingbongbingbongbingbongbingbong bingbong bingbong... bye bye

Or something like that. Should be obvious if you know the song.

Best answer: Thanks to a friend's mad Google skillz, I'm fairly certain that the song is The Fratellis' Creepin' Up The Backstairs:

When you're creepin' up the backstairs
Mother's nightmares
Falling in the front door
My my
Climbing in the window
Get dressed, let's go
Take your brother's car keys
Bye bye

You can listen to a Windows Media stream here.

Her technique was to start with a search for ["bye bye" "my my" lyrics], then add tags to eliminate incorrect results: [-myra -tq -april].
