"Well, little girls come on Remembrance Day, placing flowers on his grave. She waits in the shadows till after dark just to sweep them all away."

Great 90s chart with 20 in common with mine. Good to see REM's Automatic at number one. One of my very favourite 90s albums. Brings back good memories. And good to see Slint and plenty of Radiohead. Ace,
