Marbles - The Only Unforgivable Thing
Introduction: From an interview with
the Web France, in September 2004, h
said, "Well,
that's just a song about carrying guilt, you know, dragging it around with
you from the moment you drift into consciousness in the morning. You know,
domestic trouble..."
'the BloodyEnglishWeather'
England's weather being popularly (though not necessarily accurately)
thought of as wet and grey, h has rendered the the words as though they had
become a bona fide cliché in their own right.
‘Beyond the rocket-burst among the burned-out
fireworks In November’
A reference to Guy Fawkes Night, the 5th of November when effigies of Guy
Fawkes are burned on bonfires and there are fireworks displays to
commemorate his failed 1605 attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament to
try and ensure a Catholic monarch ascended to the throne. He was captured in
the act of putting the torch to the gunpowder. He was tortured for the names
of his co-conspirators then hung, drawn and quartered on 31st January the
following year.
