Whipping Boy - Twinkle

Whipping Boy are one of those classic Irish alternative bands who people on this island get all misty-eyed thinking about but I bet hardly anyone outside Ireland knows who they are. See also: Microdisney. I don't think they were great and I have real qualms about some of their lyrics, but on the basis of their strongest material (like this song) you'd have to agree they deserved wider acclaim than they ever received.

This is from their second album, Heartworm, from 1995.
