    So apart from the fact ‘Laid’ is one of the greatest albums ever made, and marks a vital milestone in my life, this song, this very song is one of the most sublime examples of songwriting and delivery one can imagine. Couple that with the fact James are the very very best example of how a band can exist for over 30 years without looking daft and maintaining absolute integrity and what you have, Ladies and Gentlemen, is among the greatest Bands these shores have ever gifted to the world.

    "There's a storm outside, and the gap between crack and thunder
    Crack and thunder, is closing in, is closing in
    The rain floods gutters and makes a great sound on concrete
    On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain
    Aerial held high, calling, "Come on thunder, come on thunder" this is story writing, when I listen to this I'm there, just magic.
