Ah, yes it's good. I still haven't fully recovered from the shock that was the discovery of I Could Live in Hope way back when, so it's still my favourite, but this one is two 3 or 4 Low material - considering the incredible consistency in quality, that means this is a splendid record.

You keep referencing them these days.
Like when did you start disliking them? Was it something Richey and Nicky said? I've been wanting to know for like 3 years now.

Yes, but I don't want to be too specific just now. It still hurts.

Look, you're 41 years old and have started a family. It's been 20 years at least. You just have to accept that neither of them saw themselves with you and move on. It just wasn't meant to be.
