It would seem so. Time for a well-known Voltaire quote, I fear.
NSAF does have a special place in Manics fans' hearts.

It has a certain mystery surrounding it being that it was one of the first songs from the first EMG sessions when Richey was still around. And, of course, the rumour that Richey played on it.

It's one of Jimbo's favourites.

It has a great riff and a great outro solo. It's fantastic live.

It is their arguably the best closing song on any album (PCP anyone?)

A worthy EMG winner.
