Album Notes & Community Reviews

Characterized by Peter Perrett's distinctively languid vocal drawl and a soaring, virtuosic guitar solo, this track is widely considered one of the greatest alternative anthems of the decade. The ambiguous lyrical narrative, blending obsessive romance with drug addiction, heavily influenced generations of subsequent indie rock bands.
