Bath, Somerset.
A band who are renowned for their brilliantly satirical lyrics, wry social observations, and piss-takes of celebrities and ex-footballers, but who can also write some real lump-to-the-throat songs too. This one is about caring for a partner with Alzheimer's - but the end reverts to a rousing anthemic reference to the Welsh football team 'Airbus'!

A song that could make you cry and laugh almost simultaneously.

I doubt any of you will feel that this is anywhere close to the best song you’ll hear today, but I doubt I’ll hear a better one today. Great memories of this song and the times for me though.

I've looked back over my posts on this thread and can't believe I have never posted this Genesis classic from their 'Selling England By The pound' album.
A complete masterpiece and It's hard to single out individuals as they are all magnificent on it, It's long (9:35) but well worth it IMHO.

And in a complete Michael Caine moment, I've only just noticed that the Lawnmower depicted on the album cover artwork is the same one my Dad had back in the 60's, it was a Qualcast in the same blue & red colours....................................."Not a lot of people know that"!
:lolol:

Almost as odd as Peter Gabriel’s lyrics in I know what I like in your wardrobe :smile:

One of my favourite songs but I haven’t really got a clue what he’s on about, but the lyrics work, almost Dylanesque.
