about

I love watching those television series from the sixties like, 'The Saint' and 'The Avengers'. Now imagine those characters in present day Britain trying to live their lives against a backdrop of misery, envy and anachronism.
You now have 'Beautiful People'.

lyrics

Let me tell you all 'bout the beautiful people.
It's hard being pretty in an ugly world.
Hard drinking claret when they're all on lager,
And trying for the well-turned curl.

I love this song because of the sitar sound. I actually have a guitar that can replicate it, and I thought that a song that links the sixties to now needed a mixture of acoustic and sitar to underline the theme. This was the song that made me realise that the album was a concept album.
