The New Streets Single - "When You Wasn't Famous"

Do people only like songs if they can identify with then??

I don't think so. But that was a big part of Skinner's appeal, that he talked about getting beered up, pulling birds, going to a greasy spoon, doing gear etc...I know you can't go on doing the same thing forever, but as long as whatever he does is the same quality as his earlier stuff he can cover whatever subjects he likes. Sadly I don't think the new single is as good as tracks like 'The Irony Of It All' or 'Don't Mug Yourself'. Others have said it's a grower though, so I'm hoping it will grow on me.

It will and if you really listen to the lyrics you'll understand he's just normal still :)

I wanna meet him and his dog :(
