I think I'd have to choose 'Perserverance' by Terrorvision.
I haven't time
I haven't space for Perserverance
Cos I'll swap and change
Just when I like
To keep up appearance
How about you? Any tunes you've listened to and just thought 'That's me all over, that is'?

"Don't Let Me Get Me" by Pink
Seems to sum up a very large chunk of my adult life

It's a Sin - by the Pet shop boys - at least I thought so when I was an angst-ridden teenager.
Can't think of one for now - will rack my brains

That Pink song does have some resemblance to my life. A really good song too.

'Tomorrow' from James was sort of my theme tune up until a couple of years ago, really can't think of one now - there is more to choose from when you are angst-ridden!

When I was younger it was the following:
Lean On Me & I'll be Your Shelter - both by the Housemartins, though they are old gospel numbers.
This was at a time when I was getting really active politically and in a trade union and they really summed up my attitude to politics

"If you're wondering why
All the love that you long for eludes you
And people are rude and cruel to you,
I'll tell you why, I'll tell you why..."
You Just Haven't Earned It Yet, Baby
The Smiths
Sorry but - at the moment. Next week, well, it isn't going to be the Beach Boys, but it might not still be Mozzer and Co.

Changed my mind. It's now
"Spent all day down the f**king pub,
'Cos I'm a c**t, a c**t, a c**t, a c**t, a c**t, c**t,
P*ssed my giro up the wall,
'Cos I'm a c**t, a c**t, a c**t, a c**t, a c**t, c**t"
by a punk band whose name escapes me for the moment.

The Police - Wrapped around your finger.
It sums up perfectly the way I feel about my wife, who is the most important thing in my life.

I thought Ring around your finger was about a fortune teller. Or had something to do with covetting another man's wife.....
