Busted Tracked Down Their Schoolboy Crush Miss McKenzie & We Have So Much Nostalgia

Thursday, January 7, 2016 - 12:57

Busted have released a short video in which they track down their schoolboy crush, and star of the 'What I Go To School For' music video, Miss McKenzie.

In the promo video for their forthcoming tour the three lads can be seen creeping outside a house, much like their original music video, though this time they've aged just a little.

Speaking to the MailOnline, Matt explained how the clip came to be, saying: "We were thinking of interesting things to film whilst we were recording at Abbey Road, and came up with the idea of tracking down the original Miss McKenzie from the 'What I Go To School For' video."

He continued: "It was a really fun trip down memory lane and took us back to 13 years ago when we first filmed the video. And she still looks great!"

11 Reasons We'll Love Busted Until The Year 3000

1. They made school uniforms cool again. Joint credit should be given to Avril Lavigne, but at the time, no one looked better in a stripy tie than these guys.

2. 'What I Go to School For'. Speaking of school uniform, let’s never forget their slightly creepy but insanely catchy ode to a hot schoolteacher: “Girlfriends I’ve had plenty/None like Miss Mackenzie…”

3. That line up shot. It’s iconic (and also demonstrated that Charlie Simpson is an absolute GIANT compared to Matt and James).

4. Simmo’s eyebrows. Really need no introduction, Charlie Simpson’s bushy eyebrows set the bar waaaaaay before #onFleek was even a thing. Cara Delevingne, step aside.

5. Their dedication to hair products. Seriously, can we talk about how much gel and Sun-In is going on in this photo?

6. They made us want to take every photo with a fish eye lens. This shot of the boys was the epitome of everything that was cool in, like, 2004.

7. Busted OWNED the air jump. Whether it was on stage, in videos, or bizarrely, on space snowboards (?!) this was the band’s signature move.

8. They wrote ‘Sleeping With The Light On’ and we cried to it. A lot. Look at Charlie’s sad face. So beautiful. So sad.

9. 9. ‘Crashed The Wedding’ – what a tune, what a video, and the soundtrack to every wedding disco since.

10. They had a song on the Thunderbirds soundtrack, and it showcased Charlie’s gravelly, super emosh voice to perfection. All together now… “I’m calling you at 3am…”

11. Their splitting up press conference broke our actual hearts. But it is ok now, because they’ve come back to fix them. Welcome back, boys.
