Pure Genius. No one else could come up with a song just using the FEAR for lyrics. Ace video too.

A poet of this age as well as a true northern working class hero (where all great music is incepted). Fundamentally, a Lennon of this day. This is timeless...to paraphrase The Verve; 'This is music'.

The lyrics are very clever and the tune sends shivers down my spine. It encapsulates the genius of the man and is a perfect example of why I love his voice so much. It's miles better than the Lily Allen song of the same name.
