Bonus Track: "My Wife and My Dead Wife"

I changed my mind at the last minute and decided to play a more up-tempo song from this band. This song, though, always sticks with me. It seems to be about how the people you knew sometimes seem to hang around like ghosts. Or it's about actual ghosts. It's hard to tell in the crazy world of Robyn H.

Bonus Tracks: More British Love Songs

Pink Floyd - "A Pillow of Winds"

This one comes from my favorite Pink Floyd album: Meddle. This song is so thoroughly steeped in the comfort and safety of home and bed, and the quiet, reassuring companionship of your sleeping sweetheart. - Chris

John Lennon - "Oh Yoko"


Elton John - "Love Song"


Robyn Hitchcock & the Egyptians - "Insect Mother"

A weirder alternative to the Robyn Hitchcock song I elected to play during the episode proper ("So You Think You're In Love"), "Insect Mother" is more of a psychedelic rock-influenced head trip of a love song. - Chris

Bonus Track: "Brenda's Iron Sledge"

A lesson in songwriting: When searching for a rhyme and running into difficulty, try a non-sequitur. For instance,

All aboard Brenda's iron sledge
Please don't call me Reg
It's not my name
