    Oh hell, I wish I were young again... :)

    Very well-made video! I never even realised the Father Ted theme had words, though I knew the band involved. I will definitely check out the Divine Comedy version now.

    beautiful portrayal of the song! Creative video, as well... I just feel as though the keyboard practice doesn't fit with the rest of the movie...I would have liked to see an old upright piano for the "writing" of the song... I loved it anyways though! Best one I've seen yet!

    Yeah I love them. But Ben does do a nice cover of it. And Father Ted ROCKS.

    You asked this question about three years ago, did you find the album the song is on? If not, the album is called Supersunnyspeedgraphic. It was released in 2006.

    Ha Ha! i had absolutely no idea this version of the song ever existed! I only ever knew the Devine Comedy version (& the Father Ted theme music!) I love Ben Folds' voice

    @photolitherland whoa I misread that and made the song have a completely different meaning

    I read "beasts" as "breasts"

    @murraythedemonhead

    Actually the song was originally composed as the theme for Father Ted and was later worked into Songs of Love.

    Oh, and this version of the songs is from Sunny 16 (released in 2003)

    This is quite possibly the most adorable song I've ever heard. And the fact that Ben Folds covers it makes it about 237.9% more adorable.
