Fuck me in the goat ass it's been waaay too long since I last listened to this. Just chucked it in before. I'll be damned if Streets of Your Town isn't the best pure indie-pop song ever recorded.

So true. "Boundary Rider" is one of the best songs to have been released last year.

the goat says it when he gets hit in the head by a football in Adam Sandler's 'The Goat'. Dont worry.

I didn't realise until last year that Streets of Your Town has been used for years in the ads of the regional affiliate of one of the national tv channels. Surprising quality choice by otherwise conservative station.

As in, I didn't realise it was a Go-Betweens song

Yeah, I don't really have much else to add

it's the theme song for the Courier Mail as well. One of their advertising slogans is something like "on the streets of your town".

It was this very ad that reminded me that:

a). I hadn't heard this record in ages.
b). I didn't actually own this record.

Fortunately, both of these have since been amended.
