    I’d completely forgotten about the beautiful south until the other day when I found out dvd of all of the gold music videos. My childhood was sat having tea in the parlour in front of the TV and my sister and I always asking for that DVD to be put on. I’ve accidentally opened a huge world of childhood nostalgia. It’s funny seeing these videos and listening to the songs now and realising how innocent I was back then.

    Tongue so sharp, the bubble burst
    Just into unjust
    I've had a little time to find the truth
    Now I've had a little room to check what's wrong
    I've had a little time, and I still love you
    I've had a little
    You had a little time and you had a little fun, didn't ya, didn't you?
    While you had yours, do you think I had none, do you, do ya?
    The freedom that you wanted bad
    Is yours for good, I hope you're glad
    Sad into unsad
    I had a little time to think it over
    Had a little room to work it out

    Simply extraordinary song, vocals and video.
    The lyrics are superb, so poetic in depth and subtly. Lines like ‘sad to unsad,’ understand that she is not happy, just unsad. There is a huge difference. “My ‘favourite line is the heavily caustic; ‘you need a little room for your big head..’ ( with said head surrounded by knives!)
    The video is certainly one of the best music videos ever made. The bathos and the dark humour. The acting by both is superb. Briana is terrifyingly psychotic as the scorned wife, he as the passive ‘guilty’ husband. The dynamic is all its toxicity is perfection. On a side note, one hopes that the partially decapitated teddy does not belong to an unfortunate child of this relationship.
    I must have watched this video/listen to this song a 1000 times. I never tire of it. Sheer perfection!

    I need a little time
    To think it over
    I need a little space
    Just on my own
    I need a little time
    To find my freedom
    I need a little...
    Funny how quick the milk turns sour
    Isn't it, isn't it
    Your face has been looking like that for hours
    Hasn't it, hasn't it
    Promises, promises turn to dust
    Wedding bells just turn to rust
    Trust into mistrust
    I need a little room
    To find myself
    I need a little space
    To work it out
    I need a little room
    All alone
    I need a little...
    You need a little room for your big head
    Don't you, don't you
    You need a little space for a thousand beds
    Won't you, won't you
    Lips that promise - fear the worst
    Tongue so sharp - the bubble burst
    Just into unjust
    I've had a little time
    To find the truth
    Now I've had a little room
    To check what's wrong
    I've had a little time
    And I still love you
    I've had a little...
    You had a little time
    And you had a little fun
    Didn't you, didn't you
    While you had yours
    Do you think I had none
    Do you, do you
    The Freedom that you wanted back
    Is yours for good
    I hope you're glad
    Sad into unsad
    I had a little time
    To think it over
    Had a little room
    To work it out
    I found a little courage
    To call it off
    I've had a little time
    I've had a little time
    I've had a little time
    I've had a little time
