	thats all very nice, but we're missing the point, how f*ing well does he sing it??

	Oooh, get you, Oscar Wilde.

No Picture Marcus Rhythm Player	#3 by Marcus Moore at Oct 7, 2007 at 4:55 AM EST
	check again, mytwojakes, i believe the question was "What does this song mean to you?" i could give fuck all about what this song really means.

No Picture Justin Rhythm Player	#4 by Justin at Oct 8, 2007 at 10:29 PM EST
	we don't necessarily have to be working class to relate to it, as long as there's someone richer than us, and everyone can relate to that. And tell me, how many alchoholics do you know?
