“Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
Everyday I make my way
Through the streets of your town”
– The Go-Betweens, ‘Streets Of Your Town’
A marriage of a picture of one of my favourite towns, Edinburgh, with the lyrics from one of my favourite bands, Brisbane’s Go-Betweens, who spent a good deal of time in the UK forging their career, a long way from home.
There is something about the song that captures the displaced feeling of pounding the pavement in a town that will never be your own.
