I've got the 12" on vinyl, but frankly the original single is better!

@patrickhadfield Billy Bragg wrote some great songs, and his lyrics are underrated.
One of my favourite lyrics ever is:

I saw two shooting stars last night
I wished on them but they were only satellites
Is it wrong to wish on space hardware
I wish, I wish, I wish you'd care

@essexman Bragg's wordplay is excellent!
