"Not that puff I said dismayed, yes but he's no puff she cried, he's more than a man than you'll ever be, ere we go 2-3-4"
This era doesn't get any better matey.

Fuck me I still like this song after all this time.
Hearing it again, he sounds a bit like a very effete John Lydon (a stretch, I know) crossed with Frank from Some Mothers Do 'ave 'em (The Phantom Of The Opera guy).
The backing band could almost be from The Fall.
Which I like.

This was bizarre and brilliant. Jilted John opened the door for off-the-wall music videos.

This is essential and stands up to the scrutiny of time - unlike Kid Jensen.
It 'rocks', is genuine and cool - despite being something of a parody, and it speaks poetically. Jensen comes across like John's geography teacher - just about approving of the relative AOR sounds of Blondie's 'Picture This' . I want to grab him by the shirt collar and spit 'what kind of DJ can't identify new Rock n Roll when they hear it!?'

The song is on the album 'True Love Stories' - which is well worth the investment!
