All things considered, taking all the changing styles and changes of pace and ups and downs and falling outs and different forums and the poor pound against the euro and the recovering pound against the dollar and the credit crunch and The kinks and indifferent English weather, I find myself singing this the most in the shower.

Well that's a great way to start an album too.

Life Begins At The Hop wasn't on the album when it was released (at least, not on my copy) - but it certainly should have been.
