It's a pity they didn't use more of his lyrics about the foggy rooms of time and evening's empire returning into sand but that Rickenbacker sound still brings a smile to my face.

I think you have face up to the results of an "every-child-receives-a-prize" education system, the products of which are now passing on their lack of knowledge to the next generation.

Looking at the playlist for last night - did someone honestly not know that Your Song was a cover??
