7 Seconds of Love is an English ska band fronted by musician and animator Joel Veitch that writes and plays songs with often random, silly lyrics. Veitch animates many videos of the band's songs, such as "Ninja" and "First Drink of the Day". Some songs have had videos directed by guitarist Pat Schulenburg, such as their most recent production "Twister". The band regularly tours the United Kingdom. The animations are available on Veitch's website and the band's site. [1]

The band's first official single was "Twister" as an iTunes exclusive, but they have recently released "Love Me Like You Used To" and "Ninja". Originally the MP3's of these tunes were available for free, but these are new, fully re-recorded versions available for sale.

The song "Soupy George" has also inspired fans of the band to turn up at gigs wearing soup cans (either real, empty tins of soup or artistic representations) on their heads.

Coca-Cola fiasco

The band sought legal advice after a Coca-Cola advertisement in Argentina featured music and animation very similar to that of the film clip for Ninja which the band had made available on their MySpace account and on YouTube. Plagiarism article

After talks, Coca-Cola agreed to an out of court settlement of an undisclosed sum. BBC Article
