I absolutely loved this record until some twat named Dario G decided to sample it in a third rate sub rave piece of pish and totally ruined it for me.
That was until yesterday when it popped up on the iPod and I felt that sort of warm, fuzzy feeling that I used to feel when I heard it. Never got into anything else by the band.
Can't for the life of me recall anything else the band ever did, apart from a pretty pointlesss instrumental version of Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want This Time which was used in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

"It's Not So Grim Up North" Don't be ridiculous. Of course it it. I know. I went there once.
It is this morning, fucking snowing again!
Good post Drew. It's not that grim up here. We've got the Trafford Centre and everything.
Swiss Adam - lest we forget that ray of sunshine and northern wit that is mark Edward Smith.
Part of the wonderful British pastoral pop tradition...there is a sort of magical Brian Wilson feel to this song as well!
