Youn Jong Noh asked: The choir: Could someone please give me their opinion on some lines from "Slow Graffiti"? Now the kid has gone to bed A feeling of dread At least when she's around the trouble's there It's worse to wake up with her falling round the room The song was written for a particular part of the Acid House - a book by Irvin Welsh that was made into a movie. The book is several short stories, the one Slow Graffiti relates to is called 'Soft Touch'. Without going into too much detail about it the story is about a couple - the guy is named Johny. His 'wife' is sleeping with the bloke upstairs. She is always coming in late - in the movie she has been prostituting herself for cash - falling all over the place and waking him up. Then she ends up having a NASTY affair with the bloke upstairs - none of these people have a great amount of money or morals, if you know what I mean. The part of the movie that actually uses 'Slow Graffiti' is where Johny is downstairs listening to his 'wife' take it violently up the backside by the bloke upstairs. The baby they have is awake and crying. And he is trying to console both the child and himself. Later, for his troubles, the bloke upstairs and the 'wife' kick his head in and rob him. It's very grafic, but also a great movie/book. Irvin used music by Arab Strap and the Delgadoes - both bands wrote music specifically for portions of the movie where it would be used. So, there you go. Slow Graffiti is, in my humble opinion, one of the best songs B&S ever wrote. Anyway, hope that answers your question....
