"BILLY BRAGG SAYS"
"This song is about probably two of the most important subjects dealt with in modern music
in the western world. I mean, of course, sex and motor cars. 'From A Vauxhall Velox' - this is a
very obscure form of English motor car that was made...very wide-bodied English motor car that's
hard to pass. They were instantly obsolete when they were made. They rusted very, very quickly.
So people who own them in England are very, very trendy. So they are much loved by readers
of NME and things like that. It's incredibly trendy to have one - not to drive it but just to
have it parked outside your house so that people can see it". |
