I used to know some folks who lived next door to Steve Kilbey in Darlinghurst.

(the following is a random anecdote, nothing to do with The Church)

Their landlord was a complete scumbag, even by low-rent inner-city slumlord standards. Amongst his many cheapnesses, he’d sold off the front and rear doors and replaced them with cheap internal doors; just two bits of plywood on a frame.

One morning, we all piled into their loungeroom after a night out clubbing. It was an hour before someone noticed that the TV was missing (we were all variously intoxicated); inspection of the house revealed a human-sized hole kicked through the back door.

When they finally moved out, they had a house-trashing party. BYO spraypaint and sledgehammer.

Of course, since you’ve posted that, I’ll have to follow up with:

Yazoo - Only You

And since I’ve posted that, let’s have this version as well:

Flying Pickets - Only You

Which one is better? I think they’re both good, but of course, only you can decide for yourself.
