Bigger question: Does it matter?

Yes.
David Cameron is currently attempting to bag the next General Election by doing his best to pretend that blue is not blue. If enough people are fooled the Child Catcher will slam the door shut and civilisation will go back to the thirteenth century, only quicker.

there's an article online, maybe on the beloved website where he explains all the references. some of them were friends.

"There's also props to friends of the band ("Little Neepsie, Chris, and Do"), and Marsh's bandmate Waddington and his girlfriend ("Steve and Claire") — the latter providing a suitable rhyme for the inclusion of Fred Astaire."

I'm sure I read that in an article posted on the Beloved site but I can't find it now.

nice to see Kym Mazelle trending on Twitter and (apparently) on uk tv this very evening.

not for her. went on 'the voice' and didn't get through. seems like a gamble that was barely worth taking.

Awesome! Sometimes I feel like I'm not just the only one that loves this record but also that loves "Conscience" and "X."

I love the Beloved, all the albums, and just about all of the 12" remixes too. Jon Marsh is a great guy on social media. Providing lots of fan support through answering questions and offering up rare mixes / etc.

their RSD release last year was very fondly received by me, if seemingly nobody else
