Guest 2:32, you have encapsulated the essence of traditional English song, songs which reflect the national character, a national character sculpted and trained by weather, social conditions, and tens of successive governments, governments which understand that the British people are not happy unless they've got something to moan about and have diligently endeavoured to supply the demand they have created. So is it any wonder our songs are bloody miserable.
