seems a shame that such a wonderful musician has to work at TAFE (no offence TAFE teachers), I just mean if would be nice if she could live off fat royalties like other people (eg Sting). Maybe she likes it. Hope she is still creating music in some form or other.

It's Ultimo TAFE in Sydney.
She teaches subject 7810A "Copyright & Royalties". Must be a good teacher as my son got a Distinction.

Which Tafe is it? I need her help

this is like THE go betweens-song; beautiful, haunting, Grant singing most of the lyrics and Robert just sounding cool... :D
-
The drummer, Lindy Morrison, is my son's teacher at TAFE on musical copyright law.

Since when was Grant McClennan gay?
-
Nothing against gays, just people who don't have an open mind about other people's musical tastes. You've read 1 too many article on Pete Doherty in "New Idea" to cloud any understanding of Pete's talents.
Compare ANY of Pete's lyrics to ANY artist of Today's releases and you will not come close.
The man is a modern day poet, admittingly with a serious drug habit (there, are you glad I said that bit?).
Tosser...

In that case I take it back. But clearly u r a homophobe & my film 'Blow Job in the Library' is avail on myspacetv is u actually wanna check it out b4 u make a comment. But seriously Babyshambles?? Pete's got absoluetely NO talent no matter how u look at it. Ive also got a Sylvester video on my youtube channel. Guess what? Hes GAY too. Grant McClennan was gay too so do u hate the Go-Betweens now?

Eh Fuckhead. I was being complimentary of this song. Numbing is a feeling.
I am not the one with "Gay Skinheads" on my you tube collection... It's joined by "Blow Jobs In the Library".
Might need to get a life outside of the internet COCKHEAD.

Warning: That last comment comes from a, wait for it, Babyshambles fan. Bwaahh ahhhhaa ha.
One of the best nostalgia songs ever written. Always makes me sad but hopeful too.

I used to drink with Grant at a bar in Brisbane called Rics in the late 90s. He was a REAL gentleman. He was incredibly well read, and a very gentle, unassuming man. I had spent quite a few sessions on the piss with him, before finally asking him: "what do you do?" He looked at me shyly, and said: "Umm.. I do Music."
Such a modest man. And such a fantastic ear for a melody. I will never forget GW McLennan.
