Hello, I need suggestions for rudeness / insults in Mark E Smith songs e.g. 'Glam Racket n fact, you're a half-wit from somewhere or other '' AND any compliments nice things. It's for a thing I'm doing, could you post name of track and excerpt from lyrics? XXX @COTFShow
For our series finale of Oh! Brother, we answer your pressing questions, with some more open-ended than others, with help from our resident Michael Parkinson, Nathan Hanley. Thanks to everyone who sent in questions, and thanks to all our great guests this series.
Welcome back to Oh! Brother. We were thrilled to be joined by friend of the show Brix Smith for this week's episode, as we take a look back at the year that was 1988. Tours, ballets, videos and phlegm, we reminisce about perhaps the world's busiest band's busiest ever year.

#thefall "2 x 4": "Used table leg to club son-in-law" lyric. Another example of MES use of newspaper headlines. I found this one in the Manchester Evening News, 20 August 1983 p29. Song's live debut was Nottingham 27 September 1983. Source: https://t.co/V3lVaWc9fH. @fallnews
Simon 'Ding' Archer is our guest this week. Bass player and producer extraordinaire, Simon tells us about his times in an innumerable list of great bands, the art of singer-wrangling and the difference between being inside and outside the large Fall tent. Enjoy!
