| That's Hull for you, dentie! First Housemartins song I heard (not surprising given it was their only no.1), got one of their best of's today and it's fantastic! Shame they were so short lived, but they went on to much greater things! | |

| This song is a cover of an Isley Brothers song but the HM version is better, the video really conveys Paul Heatons Cynicism about organised religion when the image is conveyed the clergy as the KKK with a face. Thought is was brilliant 1 | |
