I knew that I knew it, but gave in and cheated by googling it.

Having now seen the vid - it is not the first line! however the song title is in the first line so probably fair enough.

Can I give a clue? The group's name has something in it that belongs to a Greengrocer.

This line is in 'Planet Claire' for sure.

yay or nay?

not sure I get the Greengrocer bit though?
