I love the fact that Stuart sings this, rather than Isobel even though it's obviously is about a girl. It makes Stuart seem like such a sensitive and sweet guy, and his voice is so tender.
It's a really sad song, especially since it's so true. "Oh, what's the fucking point at all?" really is the question that keeps rape victims from reporting it, you can almost be sure that justice won't get the rapist since there's never enough proof nor resources. The mixture of apathy, sadness, pain and hatred is so perfect in this song, almost as if he'd gone through it himself. Love it. One of their best songs.
