THE BEAT - "I CONFESS" (HQ) . . . . FUCK, I LOVE THESE GUYS, THEY'RE TOURING OZ IN A FEW WEEKS AND I'M THERE WITH BELLS ON . . . . THIS IS JUST A KICKIN TALE OF REGRET AND SELF LOATHING . . . . LOOKING BACK IN CLARITY AND SHAME . . . . THE UNIVERSALITY OF THE HUMAN CONDITION, THAT'S WHAT TUNES LIKE THIS ARE ALL ABOUT !!!!

Yeah, good ol love goin south, who doesn't know that feelin, who hasn't experienced the fucked up, head spinnin vertigo of romance vanishing down the shitter . . . . the pain, the anguish, the anger, the white hot hate of your own actions, thoughts and words . . . . the realisation that it's gone forever, the momentary flash twelve years down the track that you'd risk it all, every fucking thing, for just one more crack . . . .



Then the cold, flatline of knowing that shit just ain't never, ever gonna happen . . . . anyhoo, enjoy the best of The Beat, just before they disolved and were reborn as General Public . . . . can't wait to check em out, go back in time for a while . . . . remember the good stuff, block out the bad.
