Ooooooh! Their Ocean Rain! I like the sound of that analogy! One of my fave Bunnymen albums!

Got dressed to it this morning. Worked really well! It wouldn't be suitable for undressing music however...
Three days in and still positive.

I believe the word/sound 'meh' was created specifically for this single.

For Nicky's part, certainly! I'm like 'Shut up Wire!'.
