What Vaughan says. A song so unforgiveably perfect that I find myself unconsciously singing it every time I cross Waterloo Bridge.

It should be the National Anthem of the People's Republic of London.

I think some would make the argument that the song was originally written about Liverpool, not London.

Still lovely though.

Quin, you're right, the song was originally called "Liverpool Sunset". But it's still become the quintessential London song, even though there is a district in Liverpool called Waterloo. But wherever it's placed it's, as you say, lovely all the same.

Funnily enough, I lived on Penny Lane in Liverpool for two years, and, unlike "Waterloo/ Liverpool Sunset", the Beatles' song leaves me quite cold.

Terry Stamp and Julie Christie, yeah?

Kinks - King of Britpop.

DG - King of Bloggers.

We salute you, Rimmer stylee.

Ahh! 1977, and 22 years old, meeting my American girlfriend at Waterloo Station... walking over Hungerford Bridge at sunset...

Lordy, nostalgia ain't what it used to be.
