Background Information
The song was written by former Busted member James Bourne. The lyrics are about collecting so-called ‘friends’ on sites like MySpace and Facebook and not even knowing who any of them are. Although there are reports of the track being written especially for Quigg, these reports are not true as Bourne performed the song in 2007.
