The XTC link, and 'Senses Working Overtime' or 'Red Brick Dream' in particular, has been mentioned several times on here in recent years.  If someone close to Jed were to suggest it, he might just go for it.  Can't really articulate why, but I think it's the kind of thing he'd welcome.

PS  'Red Brick Dream' would win it for me, simply because (other than Kramer's 1993 promotion effort) it's the only song I know that contains the words 'Swindon Town'.

Nah XTC just dont do it for me
Maybe cos saw too much of them when they stood in for non show punk bands at local gigs late 70e early 80s
Maybe cos they are shit 

And yes altho Red Brick Dream contains the words Swindon Town its not very lively is it
Senses is a lil more upbeat but still meh

I liked the way Wolves worked Hi Ho Silver Lining
Music stopped before chorus and crowd belted that out

Something catchy is needed methinks

I hate that Smiley

I also heat German substitutions where the announcer says the first name and the crowd parrot the surname.

Partridge & Moulding were far better songwriters than those Scouse dickheads.

I like tangents.

XTC really are brilliant but can understand how they may not appeal to everyone
