The Wedding Present - I'm From Further North Than You

If you're going to make a song about a relationship gone sour, you might as well make it funny and witty. David Gedge knows these things. The title and opening verse suggests distance and coldness, the peppy pop music gives it the light tone, and the lyrics...

I think we're the same in many ways
And I admit we had some memorable days
[pause]
But just not very many.


From the brilliant (as expected) album, Take Fountain.
