Hypnotised, 1980
Written by J. J. O'Neill
This isn't the Elvis Costello cover I thought it might be. It's a slice of '60s Britpop filtered through a New Wave lens, kind of jangly in both the guitar and the vocals. Apparently it's an outlier for the band, who are normally more at home with a harder pop-rock sound. In the song, the narrator bemoans a love connection that turned out to be a flash in the pan. "There she goes, I won't see her again / She's gone to school with her best friend."
