Today’s song is the 1989 song Nothing Ever Happens by Scottish band Del Amitri. It’s an anthem to the banality of everyday life and about how we’re mostly oblivious to the world around us: “the Martians could land in the car park and no-one would care”. This is my antidote to the cheesiness of the past few days’ Eurovision numbers!
