This evening surprised me. Surprised me in that my second in command loved the Divine Comedy. Mr Hannon performed a favourite of Miss Isaac’s, Something for the weekend (not only because she built her very own woodshed). 

I was surprised that they didn’t play Gin Soaked Boy, but was pretty chuffed to hear an unexpected Songs of Love. There was even a subtle-ish reference to My Lovely Horse, although this didn’t materialise. 

Despite the costume, Napoleon Complex surprisingly didn’t feature, but the Alfie cover did lead to their own song of tbe same title.  And National Express? They sang that one too. 

Father Neil Hannon, you were great tonight.
