I like it a lot, but 'Glass Snot' made me laugh though.
Lots of reasons really - firstly, I just don't think it sounds much like a Manics track, it's a bit too happy-clappy for my liking - I'm pretty sure that someone said it sounded like a Hanson song, which I agree with unfortunately. Secondly, the lyrics are pretty dire and banal. Thirdly, I don't like the title, especially when it's mentioned during the course of the song! Finally, the guitar solo is dull, it lacks something and towards the end I always hear a bum note that's not there and that's irked me for years!
