    "comment": "The first single from Dramarama's debut album Cinéma Vérité.\nAccording to Dramarama singer John Easdale: \"It was written about my ex-wife and I. We lived in a one-room apartment downstairs from where the rest of the band lived in a two-bedroom apartment in Lodi, New Jersey. Couples often tell me it's \"their\" song, and I'm flattered that they feel the emotion and passion of it, but I am always a bit reluctant to mention that it is essentially an ode to a bitter break-up.\"\n-  https://www.vice.com/en/article/534gz8/how-a-mid-80s-alt-rock-radio-hit-defined-dramarama",
