this song means so much to me, from goin through the subject as a teenager, to finally realising what the lyrics were about 10 years later.... brilliant song

there's are two Luna Parks in Beirut, Lebanon lol

The plot thickens!
You seem to have a lot of info I lack...
I live in Buenos Aires now, and there is a huge Rock venue called Luna Park here too, where I saw White Stripes a few months back.
Still... let's settle for Australia.
And such a GOOD song it is!

there's a line in the song "they'll laugh when I say I left it overseas", so this didn't happen in England.

I went to see a band called "Ace" in 1977 and support was a band called Graham Parker & The Rumour - for a few minutes i honestly thought it was Bob Dylan!
Saw him (them) again with Southside Johnny & The Asbury Dukes supporting, and also saw them supported by a band called "Blue Angel" at a tiny university somewhere outside London.
Great to see Graham Parker on youtube - thanks so much for posting this, one of my favourite GP songs!

Triva alert: Ace featured Paul Carrack later breifly a member of Squeeze (and singer on their hit 'Tempted'). Blue Angel featured Cyndi Lauper.

Discovered him from a "punk" rocker roommate who had a few of his albums, in 84. I became obsessed with this song and temporary beauty.
I still listen to him and have several of his latest albums. Go Graham. By the way listen to the album not this crappy version.

I guess "this crappy version" can't be that bad since you added it to your favorites. This latest tour was great. Catch him next time he comes around.

i was there! incase you didnt know, its not an anti-abortion song, and its not for abortion either. its just kind of in between

From the horse's mouth...
"There's nothing really to add to this song...I get fairly rankled when people ask whether it's pro- or antiabortion. I don't deal with such simplicities. It's about being involved in an event." - GP
