Nice run of Placebo there. That's a band I've always had a soft spot for and regretted not seeing live in the 90s. Less keen on their current sunny, happy material, but love their more angsty music.

Always liked this band.

Genuinely one of the greatest songs ever written.

Really nice heavy Pink Floyd cover, with added bonus of some harsh vocals (but still lots of clean ones for those with glass-gargling allergies)

This band is growing on me

Wonder if this is where Mark Wilkinson got the idea for the Live at Donington Eddie?

What exactly means “a working class hero is something to be”?
Like something difficult to achieve? Respectable? Or it’s ironic?

My take is that John Lennon was being ironic using his acerbic wit to criticise working class people becoming middle class after having been humiliated for many years.
