  1. I can’t see the video – I seem to be in the wrong (or perhaps it’s the right) country. But I am reminded of Nick Cave when he was asked about great lyricists and nominated Shane MacGowan saying, “who else could have thought of starting a song with, ‘It was Christmas Eve, babe/ In the drunk tank’”?

    And ….

    Do you remember that sunny day
    Somewhere in London
    In the middle of nowhere
    Didn’t have nothing to do that day
    Didn’t want to do nothing anyway

    is a close second, in my opinion.
