completely unrelated but an appropriate time to quote Nigel Blackwell

"Help me Mrs. Medlicott I dont know what to do, I've only got three bullets and there's four of Motley Crue"

Then based on the Twitter quote its possible that Motley Crue saw that video and thought that was New Orders everyday image.
