Spiritualized - 'I Think I'm in Love'
Recollection Collection......musical memories recalled with affection!
I must have been really naive to think it was a song about a guy denying he was falling in love when it was actually about drugs. I recently read the lyric, 'Love in the middle of the afternoon, just me and my spike in my arm and my spoon', I doubt he was referring to making a cup of post coital tea for his missus. Obvious really, when the album was called 'Ladies and Gentlemen, We are Floating in Space' and the cover resembled a packet of subscription pills. Nevertheless, the hopeless romantic in me even put it on the ubiquitous cd for my wife, who I was courting at the time. My attempt to woo her was ultimately successful of course but she did point out that it was about a man not entirely convinced about his feelings. Oops.

Misinterpretation aside, it didn't matter one jot as this is 8 mins of pure musical bliss, a beautiful and unique song which leaves you somewhere other than where it found you.
