What song are you listening to right now?
How did this band become such a dreary corporate sell-out in the 2000s ? Listening to the guitar stab out teardrops from 3.20m onwards , I wonder why they thought " reapplying to be the biggest band in the world " ( or whatever the exact quote is ) meant anything more than this moment ? -

I love the way the synths rise to their crescendo around 2.35m and give us a plateau from which to view the ultimately casually vengeful lyrics ... so appealing ... -

I'll never ever understand why Morrissey didn't lead off "YA" with this track or "Tomorrow" as the singles instead the boringly gimmickly music-hall numbers like " Fatty" and "Successful" and " Certain ". I hate to invoke the Elvis Costello comment about great titles but forgetting the rest of... -

And this one reminds of Sylvia Plath more than any other song . The same blue icy-cold tone and sound we find in "Sheep In Fog" if I had to pick one of Sylvia's to match this track ... It took me literally a decade or more to get over crap like "Lady Lazarus" and "Daddy" and realise Plath was... -

What song are you listening to right now?
I can't express how much this song reminds me of the work of Breece D"J Pancake , the short-story writer , especially his key work "Trilobites" , although that's probably the unabashed Southerness in its mention of guns. Such longing for integration into his girlfriend's family and belief that...
