A nailed-on Ho-Hum from the narcoleptic Nottingham jury  Sorry Fred, you are correct. The vast majority of The The's songs are more "rocking" than this. I should have made a more specific reference point — this YLT song reminds me of the softer side of The The, mainly the song The Whisperers. —cheers |

Love this YLT track. One of their best, imo.

A nice song ... but the playlist today is vvverrry slow and sedate. Almost like it was programmed by a soccer mom who wants to sit in the living room of the house paid for by her doctor-husband and read her lame novels and eat bon-bons all day. All you need to add is some Enya and I suspect listeners will fall into a shallow coma.

A very introspective tone...for me at least. I don't know so much about the rest of you.
