A video where girl group KSM covers Cheap Trick’s “I Want You To Want Me” is being used in promotion spots for a new ABC Family channel show, “10 Things I Hate About You.” It debuts at 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 7 (Comcast 25).
The show is a half-hour high school series directed by Gil Junger, who also directed the 1999 film by the same name, which provided Heath Ledger’s breakout role. “I Want You To Want Me” was featured in the movie.

According to the ABC Family Web site: Rockford-based power-pop quartet “Cheap Trick released a studio version in 1977, but it was the live take from their 1979 concert album, “At Budokan,” that made it a huge hit. It’s been covered a lot; even Lindsay Lohan did a version in 2005.”
