On announcing this to all and sundry immediately post-revelation, it was pointed out I was wearing a 69 Love Songs T-shirt. My hurried retort: 'yeah but Stephin is so good it doesn't matter, plus to large a extent 69LS is abt SONG itself innit?'.
It's when a song sounds like it has been written with the intent that it be an example of good songwriting CRAFT that I tend to dislike it. Which is funny, cos I like craft in music generally - it's just that songcraft (esp. in ROCK) normally means adherence to a particular set of (by now v.tired) conventions.
