separated from his wife via fax? Does that count?

It seems a crazy situation. 50 years max makes the most sense then turn it into public domain. Plenty of time to make a living and then give to society for fair use afterwards. The ideas that kids (and grandkids) make money off songs penned years before is insane.

It certainly shits all over the other songs on this list. Great time capsule with the video as well.

Yello, the lead singer was a professional gambler, lifetime pass for that alone.

You guys watching the same show as me? Phil's great, tequila pool, wall to wall porn, the constitution nailed to his wall. The bar with his wilson type friends, wanting to shag January jones and mum from step brothers, whats not to like…?

viv albertine has some notes on the song in her book. Young Jones was still living with granny and visiting his girl via the train. One day she stood him up so he had to go home with blue balls.

No love for Christine? I mean the car was still coming, you may run, you may hide but its coming for ya.

Great,. so more talking heads, where does the mix part come in?

Tribute band? That wasn't Abe up front, strumming the guitar like he hated his fingers and bellowing out the lyrics….surely you jest…

Nixon era Candy, thats short hand for Maureen Dean isn't it?

I'd have to nominate Michael Holding, the west Indian cricketer nicknamed "Whispering death".

Great artist and a great collaborator. Always gave credit to his supporting musicians. Very sad.

I think you'll find thats one of Tims?

You mean collective soul is getting played appreciatively somewhere right now?

Everclear house? Did it have a sunken lounge? Seperate front doors for each band members?

no mention of the aussie screamer Graham Bonnet's version? Man sure had pipes.

US residents only? You know they can move mail by ship these days?

Sounds suspiciously close to "the quiet earth". Filmed in NZ as well.

Its world cup year? That's real football were talking about and yes the rest of the world is invited, something you yanks would struggle with I know. Even you guys are invited…but you're not very good…

Clash put out "This is England".
