The B-side, "Heart of Darkness" was also written by Faulkner.[4] The single was re-released in 1998 by Mushroom Records. "Whenever I'm asked to name a favourite of my songs I usually choose this one, not because I think it's 'the best' but because it best captures everything I try to do when writing any song. I wouldn't change a note or a syllable of this one and I'm especially proud that it has two different choruses when one is usually enough." - Dave Faulkner[5] Cover versions"What's My Scene?" has been performed by fellow Australian artists including: Supersonic, Anthony Jaggers, Elsewhere Fine and Jayne Henry: Underpaid;[4] The Reels released it in 1989 as the B-side to their single "Are You Old Enough?".[6] It was also performed by Russian group Red Army Choir![4] and was covered by US band Grasshopper Takeover on their 2005 EP "See No Evil". In popular culture
"That's My Team"A variation titled "That's My Team" was used by the National Rugby League (NRL) as their theme for the 2003 to 2007 seasons. In 2003 the NRL had approached former Cronulla Sharks player and then current Parramatta Eels assistant coach Alan Wilson to provide the theme for their advertising campaign. Wilson hit upon the idea of using Hoodoo Gurus' 1987 hit "What's My Scene?" with reworked lyrics (by Faulkner)[4] as "That's My Team" (2003). "and another thing, I'm discovering lately, I'm a bit crazy, for my rugby league team"Wilson and Faulkner made the necessary arrangements which included re-uniting Gurus to re-record the track. Faulkner is a long-time supporter of Cronulla and the original promo clip for "What's My Scene?" included shots of band members in Wests and Cronulla jumpers. The Hoodoo Gurus performed "That's My Team" on the 2006 and 2007 Grand Final editions of The Footy Show. A sports commentary can be heard in the quieter parts of the original song. A CD of "That's My Team" was released for public sale in September 2003, with all money raised donated to the Kim Walters Choices Programme and the Joanne Mackay Foundation, breast cancer charities established by husbands Kevin Walters and Brad Mackay, respectively.[7] "That's My Team" was parodied in episode 14 of Australian satire show The Chaser's War on Everything as "Where's My E?" (E as a slang term for ecstasy) to reflect a perceived increase in recreational drug use among players in Australian football codes. The accompanying video included various drug references interspersed with nightclub and games scenes. The song was also parodied on the Channel 7 sketch show Big Bite as "Where's My Team?" referring to exclusion of the North Sydney Bears from the top level Rugby League in Australia. Personnel
