Celebrity Mustache Book has its Own Theme Song

Celebrity Mustache Book has its Own Theme Song

Ontario rockers lend anthem for The Book of 'Bert'

NEW YORK, March 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Throughout history, films and television shows have had their own theme songs. At no time, however, has a book come equipped with a catchy song you can hum along to...until now.

The Book of 'Bert': High-Class Stars with Some High-Class 'Stache, published April 1 by Triad Publishing Group, has named Toronto-based rockers The Guys' "Man with a Moustache" as its official theme song. The song was selected by author Jon Chattman, who heard the ditty and thought it meshed nicely with the book's concept.

"Like this book, the song moves this fuzzy fad along," said Chattman, who co-wrote 'Bert' with fellow mustache aficionado Rich Tarantino and runs the entertainment humor site thecheappop.com.

'Bert' is a romp through mustache history featuring 25 well-known personalities profiled and ranked on their mustache integrity. It includes lists in various categories boasting everything from best TV dads with mustaches to best mustachioed wrestlers, and a foreward by music legend John Oates.

"I'm pretty sure 'Bert' is the first book to come with a theme song, and that's quite a groundbreaking achievement," Chattman said. "I recall yearning for books I read in school to have a rocking theme song like 'Eye of the Tiger' or an obscurely enjoyable tune like Frasier's 'Tossed Salad and Scrambled Eggs'. The Guys' tune is a song men can get behind, and women can dance to. I couldn't be more pleased to have it as the book's four-minute soundtrack."

The Guys' mustache-centric song is featured on the group's first major release "Live The Party," which boasts 12 original songs including first single "Unloaded." Front man Thomas Love said the book/song collaboration is "bringing the literary world into the 21st Century."

"It's an exciting and perfect fit. [Our song] is an expression of the mustache experience," the mustachioed singer added. "I think together with The Guys, [this book] will take over the world. Perhaps within these pages you will find a solution for America. It's certainly a 'change' we can all believe in."

Added Chattman, "I hope it starts a trend. I'm sure a lot of British rockers would've loved to have composed something for one of those Potter books."
