The Manic Street Preacher’s Faster (which, somehow, manages to have a music video that feels like a pastiche of Apple adverts half a decade before that campaign actually kicked off).

Interlude
Another musical interlude.
P-p-p-p-p-p Pancake Day!
I suspect that one has to be of a certain age to fully enjoy this classic 80s masterpiece.
