I’ve a German friend who at that time used to come to the UK regularly for gigs & football matches. One time he was excited about going to see the Manic Coathangers. I said I hadn’t heard of them which surprised him. Only after a few days did I realise I was mishearing his accent. #TMTCH

I once played that song (the record, not me trying to sing it) to a school assembly when a teacher made me do a talk.
