Metro 1

[Narration]
Here's a discovery, a vinyl discovery this week, well, an online vinyl discovery, that shows how we constantly find new things. I never owned the Sunshine Superman 45 by Donovan from the 1960s, and yet here's a b-side, well, a song from the album, that has something on it that isn't available anywhere else. And, uh, it has a harmonica overdub. It's not that important, but it is different, and ... fuck I love this song

This is really the song about Los Angeles, late at night, 1966. This is, this is the hippest of the hip, the sign in the sky, the trip-a-t-trip-trip-a-trip-trip, I couldn't keep it up if I tried

[Instrumental]

I held out
And the telephone broke
It was too cold
And failed a bit like home

It could be anything
They could say anything
Say 'I'd love you better
If you could remember'

But if I'm honest
I don't remember
If I'm honest
I don't remember

And it confuses me
And it worries you
And it's hard to hold
To what gets you through

Friends are old
And friends are cool
And I've lost most
Of those I had in school

We've all had a lot to bear
And it keeps us here
The heart will tear
And disappear
