[Introspective] The new PSB single...

[Erik Cedergren]

Hi all!

        It's wonderful! How ful of ironi, and a really catchy tune. 
However, I doubt that it will become a real hit with the public. Top 
20 in the UK thanks to the fanbase, hopefully, but not much more than 
that.
        ...on the other hand, if the rumours of having Little Britain 
actors in a video for this album are true, it is *definitely* for this 
song.  LB may pull some extra buyers, moving it another spot or two up 
the list.
        Anyway, wonderful song! Soooo tongue-in-cheek! :)
