Yeah, I think “Imperial Bedroom” and “Armed Forces” are his masterpieces for sure. He’s of late been doing some really cool live acoustic stuff with famous friends, sort of like Daryl Hall has been doing.

My two fav’s are My Aim Is True and Get Happy. Probably my all time favorite song of his is Riot Act from Get Happy.

Didn’t know about the acoustic stuff. Thanks for the heads up.

History repeats the old conceits
The glib replies, the same defeats
Keep your finger on important issues
With crocodile tears and a pocketful of tissues
I'm just an oily slick
And I travel the world on a nervous tick
In a very fashionable hovel
I hang around, dying to be tortured
You'll never be alone in the bone orchard
This battle with the bottle is nothing so novel
So in this almost-empty gin palace
Through a two-way looking glass, you see your Alice
You know she has no sense for all your jealousy
In a sense, she still smiles very sweetly
Charged with insults and flattery
Her body moves with malice
Do you have to be so cruel to be callous?
And now, you find you fit this identikit completely
You say you have no secrets, then leave discreetly
