How many other list songs have there been? I remember the Billy Joel song We Didn't Start The Fire, and of course A House's Endless Art/ More Endless Art (and it's erm tribute, the Divine Comedy's Booklovers) but there must have been more.
There's also 'It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)' by REM, which is ace. And 'Hit' by the Wannadies is kind of a list song - he lists the days of the week at least.
I think that Hillman Minx song is utter rubbish though. Just WHY has he had enough of all the things he mentions? We never find out.
I think he's just sick of them. All the things he moans about could be described as 'ubiquitous' so I guess he's just tired of seeing the same mediocre things again and again and again. The only one I can remember, though, is Ginger Spice. I quite like the song, myself. It'd be funnier if they'd included Angus Deayton in the list of people he'd had enough of - well it'd be funnier when you watched the video (which starts well but runs out of steam after about thirty seconds).
