I was just searching through my eyeTunes for some London-themed tunes and I noticed this tune and thought, "oh, it's one of those sweet and enjoyable Macca trax most people are embarrassed to admit they like", but then I listened to it (the LP version) all the way through...

What a strange song it seemed to be.

Really strange production to start with - all oily and sunk in a brackish mire - and then the structure...

I found the whole thing a bit unease

I've always loved that song and the album version is a magnificent beast but I agree that the rest of the album is a bit strange.

Was that the album about which Lennon said McCartney sounded depressed on it?

My fave tunes that Alan Partridge definitely wouldn't play on Anti-London Night:

Day On The Town - Madness
London - The Smiths
London's Burning and/or Calling - The Clash
London Loves - Blur
Primrose Hill - Madness
Waterloo Sunset - Kinks
