I wanted to share some of my favourite lyrics from one of England

's most important and influential bands, The Smiths:

"Fifteen minutes with you
well, I wouldn't say no
oh people said
that you were virtually dead
and they were so wrong"

(From "Reel around the fountain")

For anyone interested in English culture and attitudes, I recommend listening to The Smiths and reading their lyrics, they have so much insight and humour
