So, I woke up with this song in my head today...
This is How it Feels - by Inspiral Carpets covered by Carter USM.
I know, I know - J you miserable bastard! you're thinking... but if I may channel Andrew P Street here for a moment and pontificate brilliantly about music...
More importantly, I think, it was this version, by Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine, in my head.
As they take what is a beautiful yet utterly miserable song about the depressive condition of modern life, and turn it into a sideshow of noise and a celebration of the absurd, which is utterly brilliant.
Because no matter how miserable life may seem, it's forever more absurd than miserable, and I for one love that about live.
