PiL Eurovision Song

Post by markorbit »

So John Lydon's PiL has just released a song which is in contention to be the Irish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest I kid you not. It's very much inspired by his wife's battle with dementia and John really speaks from the heart.

I think it's brilliant not least because it's as far away from what you would expect. His ''Golden Brown' moment maybe.

Yeah heard this yesterday and was expecting something a little childish like the last PiL album and how wrong I was. It's quite beautiful. Hope he gets to represent Ireland.
