Internet Love Song (She Blocked Me) Flash Video

At least in the floppy diskettes era, the girls were real [1]

The song is a parody on
Puddle Of Mudd - "She [Fucking] Hates Me" written 1993, released 2002
Puddle Of Mudd - She Hates Me

written by Jimmy Allen, the former lead guitarist for "Puddle of Mudd", when his girlfriend told him to stop with his musical career and get a real job, and dumped him. It was before band hit it big and before they were signed. To make the song more TV friendly the title was changed and the bad words were bleeped out. The album insert has a photocopy of each song's original hand written lyrics, with all the goodies.

The song was number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 (in 2002-2003, before the parody was made [2]) and sold over 500,000 copies in the US. It was 2nd most-popular song by the group. Whatever works Muse-wise.
