the one time I saw the video for Cloudbusting on MTV, that's not obscure, sure, nearly ten million views on Youtube since Dec 17, 2010, but when you're ten, a little girl in overalls hugging an old man who looks like Albert Einstein and singing "I can't save you from the government", a strange what we would now call "steampunk" machine...

but the man the men in black suits are coming for is a man who never existed, a father I never had anyway, the things I'm most afraid of losing are things I never had in the first place.  it may just have been a dream I had once, a dream starring the little girl I never was with British people and really shit special effects
