I see Matey has voted. Next time you're in England I will personally see to it that you get sexually molested by a beefeater.

Wretched song. It deserves to have been released in the 90s.

There's got to be something awry here. A million-selling song that is widely acknowledged as being one of the UK's defining tunes of the 90s is written off as a piece of crap by some North Americans? Does it not travel well or something?

It's just a brilliant mantra on the uniqueness of ones own psyche.

It's tedious as hell, it drags like a clubfoot with a boulder tied to his ankle, and it fails in its goal to be majestic or sublime. It is offensive in its failure.
