Best "Rewinding the Film" Manics Tune
I caught myself singing Enola/Alone today and it got me thinking about this "rewind the film" era and the Manics' general obsession with writing glorious tunes of melancholic nostalgia.
I'm really digging RTF at the moment but what is the forum's fav? I'm sure there are more examples but these are the ones that came to mind first. Doesn't have to be a full song - maybe there is just a line that gives you that bittersweet feeling of missing something or someone in the past. Shout out your favs and I'll throw them into the poll!

I chose Enola/Alone because I like it technically how these lines were put out together:
"I'll take a picture of you, to remember how good you looked, like memory it has disappeared", so true and so stylish.

Further Away, a song in my top 5 songs of MSP:
"Further away feel it fade into your childhood."
