This song almost made me smash the screen when i first heard it. Luckily it grew on me. It's Carl singing about an old girlfriend... "choking and smoking myself into a hole" particularly got me.

I love the Legs XI demo of this song the most, with Carl lighting up a fag and the random Pete intro/Carl outbursts. Laaaaaaaadiesss and Geeeeeentlemeeen, Carlos Barat with his self penned contemporary ballad classic.......

Yeah and his voice is pure sexy. You need a few slow meaningful acoustics stuck in here and there from your favourite band!

This is one of the best songs on the album! A perfect note to end the album on. Shame they broke up :-s
