Like all good teenagers, it seems that Operator Please were placed on this earth and over our airwaves simply to infuriate the crap out of us.
‘Just A Song About Ping Pong’ has enough frantic, spitting energy to power a small former eastern-bloc nation, but that means nothing if your only urge is to flick the switch off.
The key point it seems, is that this isn’t just a song about ping pong. It’s apparently, actually, a song about (whisper it) sex. And with the perfectly wonderful line “I bet you know beef jerky has an after taste” still reverberating through our brains, we conclude that teenagers do lyrics rather like they do sex. Badly.
However, given the 2:22 clocking-in time of this track, at least there’s an accurate sense of duration.

About sex you say? But they look about 12. And the singer doesn't look like she gets much between the sheets anyway, to be honest...
ouch
one of them is really good looking. (not paedophilia, i'm 15) the thin one with long hair. gorgeous.

the drummer looks about 9 but is 17.
just look at him.
is she the violinist?
she is really, really pretty. i hope she's at least 16, so i don't feel like a perv. meh.
i actually thought the drummer was a weirdly pre-pubescent girl. finding out he's a boy has unnerved me further.
2 minutes on their site
and i want to smash my computer - and i haven't even heard them yet.
The drummer is NEVER seventeen!
oh again.
another band with just one apparent virtue: age. again the record industry tries to sell us a band by their sheer looks. again the music is shit. I dunno, it makes me kinda angry...
MOST GENEROUS REVIEW EVER!
more so then the Jamie T one, terrible song that should be forever forgotten before little britain stoop to a new lowt 'Just A Song About Ting Tong'
I love this song..
...well i like it atleast
i hate this song
with a passion!!!!! ughghgh it infuriates me to my very core...
Word
.
Ergh...
As an Australian I am ashamed of my country for producing this pile of shit. On the up side the Maximo Park show on Sundee was all the merrier because these folks had to cancel their support slot due to illness. Thank the lord...
its alright
reminds me of Neighbours, and ping pong.
Which can't be a bad thing.
Sounds really Australian though, like Ultratone? Totally Addicted to Bass type Austrailian crap.
Loves it!
Ha ha ha!
I'm so glad that this song annoys you and you are all so passionate about it. They are really stirring you up! I say good on them, you either love the song or you hate it and I think that's the point. So they have succeeded in creating a reaction. It's fucking ace
