My first favorite song by the Fall, and the song that made me a die-hard Mark E. Smith fan. No song of theirs except Shoulder Pads and Oh! Little Brother had such an impact on me and my musical tastes. The use of the tape recording onto the master tracks, and the use of the radio reports all combined with the (somewhat) non-sequitor lyrics were elements of musical genius. The entire album is a great work (far superior to Kurious Orange, in my opinion).
