My name is Martin. When me and my brother heard Year 3000 by Busted, one of the members, James had sang "went out to the back yard to find out if it was one of those rowdy boys". My brother heard it as "went out to the back yard to find out if it was one of those Martin boys" and thought i was being referred to.
