Yeah

Although "I'm Not Working" and "All Alone Here" doesn't apply to everyone.
I'm working from home, and have more work to do because I work in a video games company, and people are playing videogames more in the quarantine...

My Little Empire is more suitable.

This song makes more sense than ever *goes to listen to Quarantine (In My Place of)*.

Plan for tomorrow: Soundtrack my work from home day listening to every Manics album in order. Not sure I'll make it all the way through, but it's a way to improve the day.

See if you can use original versions. If tired of listening to the same thing next day, try their albums in reverse order. Other bands available for doing this.
It's all about the soundtrack engine makes you crack on.
Stay safe everyone!

Set up a playlist with every song, in order of release. That should keep you going for a while, especially if you include all the deluxe edition bonuses (I have a large, if slightly incomplete, discography on my computer and it runs to 1 day 9 hours, so the full thing should see you through a week of working from home).

I hope the Manics get involved and do one of Tim Burgess' Twitter album listening parties.

I think I can hear them now....'Why don't you just..........stay beautiful!?!' Yep that. Inter networking technology not being their thing I mean....and no offence (I'm coping with wine this evening...can I offer you one?)

Nicky's probably vacuuming 24/7 at the minute ....in a place of quarantine...where solitude sometimes is...in need of cigarettes and alcohol...(artistic license)

Sean was very active on twitter for a while... I'd love to hear his opinions on something more unusual like Know Your Enemy.
