"The Boys Light Up" peaked at #22 on the Australian Singles Chart. The song contains the neologism "dorseted", to rhyme with "corseted". "People aren't used to hearing 'Dorseted', and it's not actually a word - it's from the Dorset Gardens - I'm trying to be as suburban as possible, and it rhymed with 'corseted'." - James Reyne, 2003 Dorset Gardens hotel is a pub in Croydon an eastern suburb of Melbourne. The single was almost banned from radio play and some TV shows due to its explicit lyrics. Reyne makes observations about cocktail parties that his parents attended, including where one of his teachers was caught in the garden with someone else's wife.
