    Hi Martan,

    Do you have "Only love can break your heart" by Saint Etienne ? Luuuurve that song. Or maybe the original version by Neil Young ? I've never heard it. Or both ?!

    "If You Don't Want To **** Me Baby, **** Off" by Wayne County brings a tear to my eye every time.

    Seriously though, "Out There in the Night" by the Only Ones and "Wop-a-Din-Din" by the Red House Painters - 2 love songs written about cats, especially for everyone who's spending Valentine's night alone with their puddy tats.

    And of course you can dedicate them to me and the Willster as well, even though we probably won't hear it.

    I bought the Whole Story by the Only Ones yesterday in Tower and was really pleasantly surprised at how nice it all is...
    I thought The Whole of the Law might have been a one off.
    I must see if Out There in the Night is on it..
