Heard this the other day for the first time in ages. Still holds up.
I'm staring down the barrel of a long working weekend. This song played on the radio just now while I was showering, and coupled with The Cars' "Just What I Needed" which played just before it, is... welll... Featuring Anthony Thistlethwaite on saxophone, this should help me get through the next couple days. Hope it helps you out too.
I'm trying to jam more songs in the month of May than I have been all year thus far. I got a long list but this one wasn't on it. It is now! You're welcome to follow along my eargasmic adventure.

Inexplicably woke up with this song stuck in my head. Make it my jam? Why, yes. Yes, I will.
Happy voting everyone... #election2015

This tune has been in my head for days - and that's not a bad thing!
World Party's main man Karl Wallinger, should be recognised far more than he is as a great tune writer. He's been off the scene ill for many years, but seems to be back writing and performing again - Hurrah.
"Ship of Fools?" - All aboard!!!

So. This jam could be a response to @lindatee and @21schizoid discussion of 80's music gets a rough ride, or it could be my recent 19 hour car (add the word ship instead) ride, for which the words "Save Me' are very appropriate. Or it could be that this is a fantastic song and Karl Wallinger is a cheeky chap with sharp witty lyrics. I tend to get a bit verbose, so I will wave goodbye for now! "ALL ABOARD"
