This is one of my favorite Billy Bragg songs. Such a bittersweet tale of unrequited love between a dorky boy and a popular girl. I assume it's at least partially autobiographical, about his own early adolescence.
It struck me the other day how similar the sentiment of Pulp's "Disco 2000" is to this song. That would make a good mix -- unrequited love songs.
