" Build Me Up Buttercup " is the name of a song written by Mike d'Abo and Tony Macaulay, and released by The Foundations with Colin Young singing the lead vocals in 1968. It reached number 2 in the UK charts and number 3 in the US on the Billboard Hot 100.
The song was featured twice in the 1990s; it was covered by rock band The Goops in 1995 for the soundtrack of Mallrats . The music video featured View Askewniverse characters Jay and Silent Bob. Three years later, it was included (as its original version) in the 1998 film There's Something about Mary starring Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz. The actors of the film also made a video for the song, with all the main actors miming to the words in character. This version is popularly thought to have been done by both NOFX and The Donnas.
Other cover versions include 'The Partyboys' in 2003 and McFly and Busted in 2005. In 2006, a rap remake was released by Rhymefest with the late Ol' Dirty Bastard on the chorus for Rhymefest's critically acclaimed album, Blue Collar.
The students of University of Wisconsin sing this song at every other home football game. The Thames Valley University (Reading campus) rugby team also sing it at every game.
