    My fifteen year old son now sings this song with his band and does a fantastic job of it. Never dates and means as much today as it did the time x

      "A Tribute To Kirsty MacColl" was the name of the show, Mick. Hence the description "Billy Bragg performs his classic "New England" at A Tribute To Kirsty MacColl live at the Shepherds Bush Empire 10/10/2010". I've a playlist from the show with several other acts singing songs that Kirsty made famous: th-cam.com/play/PLB18377CB558158FF.html

    The irony is your misinterpretation based on your inadequate understanding of the the positions and then yammering on like your opinion based on said misinterpretation means anything.

    He may have written this song but, this pathetic offering is an insult to Kirsty. Sure is not a tribute. She deserved better.

  • @audible67
    @audible67 12 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    No you're not. Billy Bragg despises people who work very hard and have nice homes? nah. He despises successful people who champion social (not necessarily socialist) causes? nah.
    You would have a point if you picked someone who actually resembled what you're ranting on about. As it stands, the only thing you're pointing out is your own thick-headedness and envy.
    maybe if you use even more exclamation points your argument will be more convincing...
