    Amazing. After all these years, I still seem to get something in my eye every time I hear this great song...

    As an American, this is only the 4th major song (with somewhat popularity) from my childhood, of a British artist singing with a thick British accent, (as opposed to most other British songs/artist/songs that have been popular here in America)

    Exactly, he's showing that, even if the details and individuals change, the world and the systems he's talking about haven't yet

    A great song, though was actually from his Worker's Playtime album. This is a really good performance, I love the way how he's always changing little words here and there.

    I was thinking what a nice crowd they seem, as see so many closed minded brainwashed people from the USA who would get angry at the suggestion of socialised health care, but these seem good natured and prepared to join in with the fun of different views.

    Yeah, this is an old classic not from the new album... and it's funny these days because you never know what words he is going to use for this one... makes it impossible to sing along when you know the words from the original!
