At some point in the not too distant future, one of the children in my life (Tabitha or Oli are my personal bets) will be very dismissive of She Bangs the Drums and I just won’t get it. In exactly the same way that I don’t get Ma’s Billy Fury ‘thing’ and I really won’t get the stuff that was the soundtrack of the year they did GCSE’s (or whatever they’re calling them).

For the record, I don’t recall it being a song a really loved at the time but I do know all the words…
