OK, I know this isn't much to go on but here goes.

Mid 00s, around 2006 possibly?
The chorus has a list of girl's names (it's not Mambo #5)
Disco/electo sounding, a bit funky, sung in falsetto
It had a video with the guys dressed up in futuristic space type outfits dancing about, possibly playing instruments, the video started with a spaceship coming out of a giant pair of lips (sounds gross I know and possibly sexist but I don't remember it as such).
TIA

LFO - Summer Girls? Late 90s though

Amichelle84 · 16/06/2020 14:45

Scrap that, doesnt have a list of girls names in it

Lacazettes · 16/06/2020 14:46

The video sounds a bit like Flawless by The Ones although they don't mention any names.

Samtsirch · 16/06/2020 14:50

Eminem Ass Like That.

Kanye west stronger?

Mascotte · 16/06/2020 14:51

I was going to say Bowling for Soup High School Never Ends as it has names and Mary Kate in it.

But wrong genre

Spam88 · 16/06/2020 14:52

Mika was going to be my suggestion but I have no idea what any of his videos were like.

Beeobserver · 16/06/2020 14:52

Definitely not that one Com.

Unfortunately when you search for songs with lists of girls names you end up trawling through a lot of unpleasant sexist crap. I'm not quite sure where this songs sits along those lines though.

I might go back to a bit of daft punk though after seeing it suggested!

Scissor sisters ???

Simonsaysitschristmas · 16/06/2020 15:25

I’m invested in this, but so far the only thing I can think of is ‘Calvin Harris - The Girls’ and it doesn’t meet a lot of your criteria - I will keep racking my brain!

dobbleby · 16/06/2020 15:27

was going say o town too

Beeobserver · 16/06/2020 15:30

No, none of the above, but thank you all, I think it was quite obscure even at the time.

I've decided that it you lot can't find it, I'm not going to be able to, and I should give it a rest.

I'm not sue why I'm so invested in finding the bloody song, it wasn't that goodConfused

R Kelly she’s got that vibe has a list of girls names in it! Tho I think that’s more 90’s?

Bluesheep8 · 16/06/2020 15:36

Was it New Radicals "You get what you give" ?Confused

EasyPeasyHappyCheesy · 16/06/2020 15:38

I love running too mambo no 5 as had a very steady beat... So don't discount it

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 16/06/2020 15:40

I was going to say Liquid Dreams O-Town too

Grumpybuttons · 16/06/2020 15:46

Black eyed peas? Love them but can’t think of a song with girls name!

CosmoMacaroon · 16/06/2020 20:26

I think it's UnkleJam, What am I Fighting For? If so, I bloody love that song! Like a cross between OutKast and Prince...

ScarfLadysBag · 16/06/2020 20:28

Bloody loved that O Town song in my youth!

bloodyhellsbellsx · 16/06/2020 20:32

Ting tings - that’s not my name?
