      Aren't most people watching on their computers and getting a pretty muddy earful? And in the 90s wasn't Peter Hook mostly cashing cheques and tending his investments online from a great gaudy house on the shores of Lake Geneva or Lake Como?
      But yeah, I'm with ya.

    The many different, heartbreaking, riffs in this are like a velvet purse - Babies is high romantic seediness. It's exquisite. There won't quite be a Pulp again as it requires first hand, bewildered, knowledge of supermarkets that are all decorated in various shades of brown, of environments where Rita Sue and Bob Too is a sympathetic contemporary, of the descent of the north amongst the chattering classes, of the culturelessness of Thatcherism and, yes, even of free university tuition that meant more of the intelligentsia were of very different backgrounds (and were cooler because lack of money didn't obsess them) . No more a taste of honey unless it's a euphemism.

    1987 Walthamstow Charity shop. Pennies purchased a Purple wide lapel jacket, massively collared horribly tight shirt. Brown striped, tight thighs but flared strides. Big fat fake sideburns. Grabbed my mate’s Tarzan wig off him to finish it off. Walking into the Rose and Crown and drinkers were like WTF?!! What is that. No irony or trend just a laugh.
    This video lifts my spirits more than anything I can think of. The visuals and interactions. The clever beautiful piercing synth, clever bridges and Rhythms. Soooooooo good.

    You know how many “Jarvis spotting” stories I’ve read? A lot. They can’t all be true. I doubt most of them. If they’re true, this guy wanders around England non-stop, aimlessly “bumping into” the entire country while wearing the most interesting clothes and shoes ever manufactured

      I met him in an airport in 2016 we were on the same flight flying berlin to manchester... i thought it couldnt be him flying easy jet... but i mentioned it to my sister who i was traveling with and the stranger in front of us turned around and said it is him his suitcase has his initials! anyway in the later struck up a conversation with JC he was incredibly nice and gracious and i have always been a huge fan.. we talked about what we were reading... he was wearing a black corduroy suit. one of the most surreal moments of my life.

    Well it happened years ago,
    When you lived on Stanhope Road.
    We listened to your sister,
    When she came home from school,
    'cause she was two years older,
    And she had boys in her room.
    We listened outside and heard her.
    Alright.
    Well that was alright for a while,
    But soon I wanted more.
    I want to see as well as hear,
    And so I hid inside her wardrobe.
    And she came round four,
    And she was with some kid called David,
    From the garage up the road.
    I listened outside I heard her.
    Alright.
    Oh I want to take you home.
    I want to give you children.
    You might be my girlfriend, yeah.
    When I saw you next day,
    I really couldn't tell,
    'cause you might go and tell your mother.
    And so you went with Neve,
    And Neve was coming on,
    And I thought I heard you laughing,
    When his Mum and Dad were gone.
    I listened outside, I heard you.
    Alright.
    Oh I want to take you home.
    I want to give you children.
    You might be my girlfriend, yeah.
    Well I guess it couldn't last too long.
    I came home one day,
    And all her things were gone,
    I fell asleep inside.
    I never heard her come.
    And then she opened up her wardrobe,
    And I had to get it on.
    Oh, listen
    We were on the bed when you came home,
    I heard you stop outside the door.
    I know you won't believe it's true,
    I only went with her 'cause she looks like you.
    Oh I want to take you home.
    I want to give you children.
    You might be my girlfriend, yeah.
