This track helps define the early to mid-80s indie scene in the UK. It's full of all that Marxist symbolism beloved of the left at the time. It's fabulously full of its own aching self-importance and totally bereft of any fun. But despite all that, it captures a mood - it's pensive, cool, political and head-noddingly addictive. McCullogh's baritone warbles over a nicely orchestrated ensemble to great effect.
I miss those times when cute boys like this were older than me and I dreamed that one day I would have a boyfriend like this.
