it's a prime example of Paul's shitty neo skiffle granny music crap, which is bad enough, but it's also interminable *and* a shitty shallow apologia for John's emotional abuse of and neglect of his kid. It is shit.

I think the grandiosity of it being "for Julian" and not remotely FOR Julian clinches the title.
