Pulsing Through My Brain

The busker in Waterloo station was playing The La's "There She Goes" this morning. I should have gone up to him and dropped a pound coin in his hat.

Memories of my friend Sue in high school, Hong Kong, So I Married an Axe Murderer, summer, sunshine, youth...

Hmmm... there's something "polished" about Sixpence's version, like it was made on purpose for a TV show. Still close to the original though.

Yeah, I see what you mean. Plus, the video is puke-worthy.

I hate videos where they mix a TV show/Film with the band. I guess it makes sense if you are struggling to be known, but in the long run I think it's kinda tacky.

It is, but at the same time, I don't think it was a film? I can't figure out what the hell was going on in that video! Adam Goldberg seemed to be whispering to all the girls in various places to get them to go listen to the band. And then the stage fell down? What??
