This song is left over from TMWSTW.

But with horrificly naff wall-of-sound production.

Sounds like it could have come off Black Tie White Noise.

I would have done Outside but that was 78 minutes long or something.

Battle for Britain, now 7 Years in Tibet?

Is he revisiting his drug-addled Fascist flirtations of the late '70s?

That is a problem. I'm suprised no ones mentioned it.
