Misunderstood Lyrics

Postby Sunbeam » Sat Jan 16, 2016 2:21 am

Listening late again on a Friday night... Just heard Senses Working Overtime, by XTC.

The line "And all the world is football-shaped"... used to cause me all kinds of mental contortions, until I realized a few years ago, oh yeah, they're British. They're not talking about footballs, they're talking about Soccer balls... I think about that every time I hear the song.

Too much exposure to CFL and NFL in my youth warped my world view

Excellent flow of music on the stream tonight, as usual. I don't get to listen much during the week. I really wish I could have caught David's respects to David Bowie on Monday evening, but work had other plans for me. I treasure my weekends here.
