I SPENT ALL SUMMER WAITING FOR YOU
THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE TO DO, TO DO
NOTHING ELSE TO DO
I SPENT ALL MY LIFE WAITING FOR A CALL
A KNOCK ON THE DOOR, A KNOCK ON THE DOOR
KNOCK ON THE DOOR
KNOCK ON THE DOOR
KNOCK ON THE DOOR
I'D SPEND EVERY HOUR OF THE DAY TO TALK WITH YOU AGAIN

Hardly A Design For Life....lol

I understand your concern regarding your order. According to the information available in our database, your order was shipped on October 29, 2012 via Spring Global. Unfortunately, tracking is not available for this method of shipment. However, the estimated delivery time for the order is 5-10 business days from the date of shipment and final delivery will be made by your local Postal Service. Please contact your local post office to check whether they have received any package in your name if you do not receive your order within the estimated period.

fucking cunts. if they had let me use my personal PO Box for delivery i would probably have it, instead it seems to be lost in a system that does not have street delivery. fucking great.

I was just having a laugh at the simplistic lyrics. That's all. I am aware of the fact it is a very early song. It's just testiment to how good they got from the late 80's to now.

Not 'sold out', currently out of stock. Two very different things. We'll blame WEK, shall we?

The dvd is brilliant. Loved the bits with Steve Brown. Now, I've never been to Miami but y'know, Will Smith released a single called Miami so I'd expect it to be kinda glamourous and filmstarry and well, it looks like this:


Although Steve Brown didn't mention specifically in the dvd where his first Manics gig was, he's confirmed in another interview that it was Hull Adelphi. For anyone who hasn't been, the place is literally one and a half two-up-two-down council houses knocked together. It's a charming little toilet venue in the middle of the shithole that is Hull.



I just found it hilarious to hear him speaking about being dragged from Miami to this dingy little shithole under the impression they were going to be the next big thing. What a fucking transition, what was it like being Steve Brown that week?!

Ha! Ha! I'm sure he would have thought it was worth it in the end though! (Even if it was years later! )
