Was described by one reviewer as sounding like Donovan backed by XTC. I can live with that!

Shadowy lyrics,sweet harmonies & keen counter melodies aplenty from transplanted Englishman, and former Roger McGuinn sideman; a little bit UK and a little bit USA. If REM hailed from Armthorpe rather than Athens, they might sound a little like this. Maybe not.

Story behind the song
Affectionate parody of Syd Barrett. I tried to imagine a modern day Syd, watching over-zealous fans peering over his garden wall as they try to get a glimpse of their reclusive hero, and imagining what he might(or might not) be thinking.
Lyrics
"Hiding in the garden, spying on me, They call it love; it's more like a crime scene. Forgotten the words, they've changed all the tunes, but I always look on the bright side of the moon"
