This is such a great song from an underrated artist. I believe that's Johnny Marr or "The Smiths" fame on guitar, and it features backup vocals from Marr's bestie (and under-rated performer herself) Kirsty MacColl...and Wikipedia says I'm right! The thing I love most about this song is that it's a love song sung by an idiot, with the perfect tone and excellent songwriting. The line:
Billy Bragg wrote:
How can you lie there and think of England, when you don't even know who's in the team?
Gets me everytime. It's meaning is probably lost on any non-boomer, but it's a reference to the Victorian belief that English women should lie still and think of their country during sex, while the dolt crooning the song literally thinks "lying there and thinking of England" means rooting for the national soccer team.
Thanks for sharing. I almost forgot how perfect this song is.

Just saw this post. You the man - so nice to know others out there recognize real artistry.
I always got the feeling that the song was some guy in an english pub, working class, young, learning the nuances of being in a relationship. I guess he's a bit of a thug - at least that's how I interpreted that line about 'Oops, trying the handles of parked cars, Ooops, there goes another year.' as if he got caught prowling cars and spent a year in the slammer. It's a tremendous sketch of a demographic in england, young politically charged punkers. Refreshing.
Another one I really like of his is Way Over Yonder in The Minor Key.

A sincere thank you for the compliment, and always nice to meet someone with similar tastes in music, especially when the performers never gained mainstream success in America. I think the song is about a young man who refuses to grow up, definitely has a drinking problem, and doesn't have much respect for the law. (The line about "trying the handles of parked cars" resonates a little differently with me, as I know of a heroin addict who supported his habit by doing exactly that.) Anyway, Bragg has a collection of great songs, and just wanted to share a couple more, then shift gears with my current track on repeat...

This one takes on an entirely new resonance in the post-use-of-the-term "incel," but isn't really about an angry or bitter man. It's about a guy who feels jilted by his ex. "I can't survive on words you send/Everytime you need a friend." should serve as something like a wakeup call to any guy who feels he's in the friendzone. Also, Kirsty Maccoll (who sang backup vocals in the song you posted), covered it before dying a horrible, gorey death when she was run over by a speedboat.

A lot of pomp and circumstance, with irony to match. The image of his home country and its unpalatable reality are drawn into perfect relief. "When paradise to you is cheap beer and overtime./Home truths are easily missed./It's something that every football player knows.../...it only takes five fingers to make a fist." You don't find writing like that anymore.
And you won't find it here, a song I've played and replayed over twenty times since I first heard it (NSFW language):
Kanye West is automatically going to lose points in every review written for his work post-"Ye" for obvious reasons, but this song--which takes a throwaway line from "Clerks" actor Jason Mewes in the film "Dogma"--and surrounds it with an amazing beat and solid verses from his co-collaborator and featured performer is just...*fun.* I listened to the entirety of Taylor Swift's "Tortured Poets Department" and was underwhelmed. I didn't quite understand why until I came back to this track from "Vultures." Swift may have more cultural cache at the moment, for better or worse, but she seems to have lost her way when it comes to writing and performing songs that are enjoyable. This track is a banger. Love him or hate him, I think it shows that Ye has still got it where it counts.

I'm familiar with (and like a lot) A New England, it being one of his better known alternative radio hits. I'll have to give The Home Front a close listen to...
