Excellent! Im sure Ed ved would be well impressed that his music had reached the heart of mr J "Corporate" Sainsury. Lol. Sorry for the cynicism, its an all time fave song of mine, things like that really do make you smile. I remember walking into a guitar shop once and kickstand was on by Soundgarden. I was happy for the rest of the day.

it makes a diffrence hearing quality rock at work even if it is one song as it breaks up the customary sainburys ballads tape makes me shudder every time
