Mr G To Launch Music Career; Hopefully Ja'mie To Follow By Entering 'Dolly' Model Contest

0,,5716369,00.jpgWe know more than a few people who actually took to listening to and/or playing Naughty Girl ("Ecstasy! Ecstasy! E, E, E, E, Ecstasy!"), the climactic club number from Mr G's Summer Heights High magnum opus, back when the series was on the air.

One Defamer Australia pal even went so far as to "drop" the track in the middle of an indie rock club's DJ set.

It goes without saying, then, that there will be a lot of very excited people around the country next week, when Mr G releases the track as an official single!

The popular creation of satirist Chris Lilley, the drama teacher will break out of his small-screen stardom with the stand-out track from Mr G The Musical.

...

He plans a full-scale promotional assault to realise his dreams of achieving greater recognition of his talent.

"I'm planning to use the song as the school bell for a week once it's released. The Principal doesn't know this yet but I've booked in with the PA ladies and I'm going to blast it all over the school. This should help sales," Mr G said.

The 36-year-old scene-stealer said he had already received a huge response to the single, including the remixes by Paul Mac, John Paul Talbot and Stylaz Fuego.

We're impressed to see Paul Mac is in on the joke; we thought he was only interested in playing extended prog jams with Silverchair these days, but it seems Mr "We'd like to thank the ecstasy dealers of Sydney" still has a sense of humour in him!

The single will be available digitally on March 1st and on CD from the 8th.
