OBLIVIA: COLLAPSE ON ME

OBLIVIA: COLLAPSE ON ME
Oh, if these guys had been from somewhere in England and been around in 1996 this song could have been their very own Wonderwall. Or at the least, their very own Slight Return anyway. Instead, this song came out in 2001 and the band were from Sydney, though Josh the singer was Irish. Oh well. This is very Britpop, but also a bit country - I used to see it on the country channel all the time, but seemingly nobody else paid any attention. It's all about accepting someone despite their large cases full of emotional and personal baggage. Ah, to be loved like that
