Cover art for The Only Living Boy in New Cross lyrics by Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine

I also love the Britishness of Carter USM, many parts of their songs must be incomprehensible to people of other nations!! This my favourite of theirs: great lyrics, brilliant beat and piano and guitars. It makes me really happy, so the AIDS thing puts a very different spin on it for me... The end section listing "the safe 16 lovers who lied", "Clause 28ers" "rock stars" etc illustrates how diverse the sufferers can be.
