Think you could be spot on, here, Mr. BRACKET.

Self-congratulary?
Thin as a wafer melody?
C-c-c-c-c-cocaine?

Three for three! and the track is pretty rotten too

As if it couldn’t get any worse, it was the soundtrack to a Damian hirst film starring Keith Allen

Shit that’s bad. In an era that produced England’s Irie by Black Grape, that’s a nadir.

I actually don’t mind Country House. The “blow, blow me out / I am so sad / I don’t know why” gives it just enough melancholy to redeem it. The OP is beyond redemption.

Also the guitar solo is a nuts thing to be throwing into a record expressly produced to be a number one single.

OK, I’ve just realised why you posted this today.

Separately: England’s Irie would have been alright if Keith Allen wasn’t involved, as football songs go. The highest of high art would be soiled beyond repair if he was the smallest part of it.
