    "comment": "The Independent asked Guy Garvey which were his favorite lyrics of all the ones that he had written. The Elbow frontman replied: \"My favorite lyrics either describe a familiar feeling in a new way or describe a specific feeling that you've never heard described before - an emotion that's too complex to be put into words usually, ways of getting to specific feelings. In 'Station Approach,' that's a very particular civic pride, which is a very specific civic feeling. I love Manchester.\"",
