One of my favourite videos of all time. I love the bit where the girl in the shop doesn't recognise him.

If you're looking for a hot doctor, you can't go wrong with Dr. Kovac from E.R.

The Meaning of Liff wrote:

CORRIEARKLET (n.)
The moment at which two people approaching from opposite ends of a long passageway, recognise each other and immediately pretend they haven't. This is to avoid the ghastly embarrassment of having to continue recognising each other the whole length of the corridor.

CORRIECRAVIE (n.)
To avert the horrors of corrievorrie (q.v.) corriecravie is usually employed. This is the cowardly but highly skilled process by which both protagonists continue to approach while keeping up the pretence that they haven't noticed each other - by staring furiously at their feet, grimacing into a notebook, or studying the walls closely as if in a mood of deep irritation.

CORRIEDOO (n.)
The crucial moment of false recognition in a long passageway encounter. Though both people are perfectly well aware that the other is approaching, they must eventually pretend sudden recognition. They now look up with a glassy smile, as if having spotted each other for the first time, (and are particularly delighted to have done so) shouting out 'Haaaaaallllloooo!' as if to say 'Good grief!! You!! Here!! Of all people! Will I never. Coo. Stap me vitals, etc.'

CORRIEMOILLIE (n.)
The dreadful sinking sensation in a long passageway encounter when both protagonists immediately realise they have plumped for the corriedoo (q.v.) much too early as they are still a good thirty yards apart. They were embarrassed by the pretence of corriecravie (q.v.) and decided to make use of the corriedoo because they felt silly. This was a mistake as corrievorrie (q.v.) will make them seem far sillier.

CORRIEVORRIE (n.)
Corridor etiquette demands that one a corriedoo (q.v.) has been declared, corrievorrie must be employed. Both protagonists must now embellish their approach with an embarrassing combination of waving, grinning, making idiot faces, doing pirate impressions, and waggling the head from side to side while holding the other person's eyes as the smile drips off their face, until with great relief, they pass each other.

CORRIEMUCHLOCH (n.)
Word describing the kind of person who can make a complete mess of a simple job like walking down a corridor.

FARRANCASSIDY (n.)
A long and ultimately unsuccessful attempt to undo someone's bra.

HOBBS CROSS (n.)
The awkward leaping manoeuvre a girl has to go through in bed in order to make him sleep on the wet patch.

HUMBER (vb.)
To move like the cheeks of a very fat person as their car goes over a cattle grid.

KINGSTON BAGPUISE (n.)
A forty-year-old sixteen-stone man trying to commit suicide by jogging.

MAENTWROG (n. Welsh)
Celtic word for a computer spelling mistake.

MELLON UDRIGLE (n.)
The ghastly sound made by traditional folksingers

Maybe it's my tired-yet-hyper state, but this stuff has me in stitches. Some dude took a load of placenames from the UK, and made them into nouns and adjectives in a hilarious fashion. Genius.

Pet

RAMSGATE (n.)
All institutional buildings must, by law, contain at least twenty ramsgates. These are doors which open the opposite way to the one you expect.

Sounds like the Lloyd to me..

Old-school! That was one of the first tapes I ever bought myself (at the tender age of 8) that wasn't a hand-me-down..before that, it was just the aunts' & uncles' Cher and Guns 'n' Roses (respectively, of course).

Seems you weren't the only person to like the song, it was sung by the winner of the Chinese pop idol in 2005, up till then the biggest show of its kind. Check out the video about 30 seconds in. It would be a lot more impressive if she could sing at all.
