vaguely #glumweek and I love an excuse to play Billy Bragg. The live version with Badly Drawn Boy is lovely too but sounds like it was recorded under water and the words are SO important on this!

Makes for a good double feature with the previous jam. Johnny Marr on guitar. Some of Billy's best lyrics, for me: "I'm the most illegible bachelor in town..", "and then one day it happened, she cut her hair and I stopped loving her".
Jam #202 out of my total of 200.
